Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a short-term, problem-focused form of behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior.

Counseling for Trauma

Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime, whether it's a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster. We are here to help you overcome those incidents.

Counseling for Anxiety

When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – treats more than just symptoms of the problem.

Psychological Testing 18 & younger

Understanding Your Child Starts With the Right Answers When a child is struggling at home, in school, or socially, parents deserve clarity — not guesswork. Our psychological testing services for children and teens (18 and under) are designed to identify what’s really going on and what supports will make the biggest difference.

We offer evaluations for:

• ADHD and attention challenges

• Autism and social‑communication differences

• Learning problems and academic struggles

• Emotional and behavioral concerns

• Anxiety, depression, and mood changes

• Developmental and cognitive delays

Our team uses evidence‑based tools and a gentle, child‑centered approach. After testing, you’ll receive a detailed report with practical recommendations you can use immediately. We also collaborate with schools, pediatricians, and therapists to ensure your child gets the support they need.

Your child’s story matters — and we’re here to help you understand it.

Couples Counseling

All things can be improved, changed, and bettered, with just a little support, no matter how big or small. With couples therapy, you'll learn how to communicate your feelings and needs and get what you want out of your relationship.

Family Counseling

Our family affects who we are and who we become, both for the better and for the worse. We learn our vocabulary, our habits, our customs and rituals, and how to view and observe the world around us.

Anyone seeking healthier, closer family relationships can benefit from family therapy.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an integrative psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma. EMDR is a set of standardized protocols that incorporates elements from different treatment approaches.

Personality Disorders

Personality disorders are long‑standing patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that affect how a person relates to themselves, others, and the world around them. These patterns typically begin in adolescence or early adulthood and can create challenges in relationships, school, work, and emotional regulation. Personality disorders are not simply “traits” or “attitudes”—they are clinically recognized conditions that benefit from accurate assessment and specialized treatment.

At The Ivy Center, we approach personality disorders with a trauma‑informed, developmentally sensitive lens. Many young people who struggle with emotional intensity, identity confusion, or unstable relationships are not “broken” or “difficult”—they are often coping with experiences, environments, or neurobiological factors that shaped how they learned to survive.
