INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Clients sometimes are dealing with unresolved mental health issues, grief or trauma that interfere with their ability to progress with other therapeutic goals. We use interventions including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) as well as restorative and experiential therapies to support individual work.
EXPERIENTIAL THERAPY
We believe in providing opportunities for both success and failure in relationships and behaviors and in using both outcomes to enhance insight, awareness and understanding of self. This requires using real-time, hands-on experiences in groups, experiential activities, restorative justice processes and elsewhere for reflection and application.
​
Experiential activities outside the office, be they at a challenge course, an escape room, a disc golf course, camping along a river or elsewhere allow for more experience living in and processing about the concepts and thus are a fundamental component of our therapeutic approach and interventions. We introduce experiential opportunities into individual, family and group therapies.
GROUPS
Restorative Justice Process Group is a therapeutic intervention that promotes relational repair through exploration of concepts including accountability, empathy, insight and amends. Groups also may support the restorative justice goals being established in schools, juvenile and criminal justice systems and other community settings when longer-term intervention and support are needed. Groups allow clients more sustained interaction with the concepts that can enhance healthy communication and support improved sense of self, connection and overall functioning. We also offer adolescent and family process groups filled through private referrals as part of our therapy practice.
​
Many adolescents really don’t need help with the things adults fear they do; they’re not depressed or anxious or traumatized, at least not in a way that means clinical criteria for diagnosis. Really they just need some support figuring out who they are and who they want to be as people.
We believe that key tasks of adolescence include the development of healthy communication and relationship skills which, in turn, promote identity formation based on clarifying values, beliefs and priorities. We believe the principles of restorative justice (accountability, understanding impact, exploring empathy, insight and amends) provide significant and therapeutic opportunities for reflection and application. The concepts provide a lens for exploring dating and sex; drugs and alcohol; social status, friendships and peer relations; family dynamics; school and work and other issues most relevant to adolescents and young adults.
FAMILY THERAPY
Many family systems have fallen into patterns of communication and relationship that don’t allow for mutual respect and shared power. Following these patterns, we communicate in order to win arguments or prove points, to establish a clear winner and loser, right and wrong, good and bad, and we use these exchanges to drive expectations of conformity or compliance.
An adolescent family member can introduce new levels of conflict, especially when abuse has occurred and trust has been broken. Family therapy can help shift communication patterns, confront assumptions and rebuild stronger relationships.
OFFENSE-SPECIFIC THERAPY
Unlike other programs and settings, we also can provide services for all family members when an adolescent's sexually offending behavior has caused the family disruption. We are both full juvenile providers certified by the Colorado Sex Offender Management Board. We also have extensive experience working with victims of incest and other sexual abuse.
​
Together, we can collaborate and coordinate treatment for juveniles and for siblings, parents and other members of family systems in a way currently not possible in other treatment and supervision programs. This allows for a streamlined and efficient process in what is an overwhelming, frustrating and confusing situation. We also offer a group for non-offending parents seeking information and support, and we provide informed supervision training.
RESTORATIVE JUSTICE SERVICES
With more than 15 years of combined experience facilitating restorative justice circles, developing and implementing restorative practices and training restorative justice facilitators, we can support the introduction and use of restorative justice circles in a variety of settings.
​
Circles are an impactful and effective response to criminal or delinquent behavior, abusive or hurtful patterns in relationship, and interpersonal conflicts in schools, workplaces and communities. We also can support many different applications and executions of the restorative justice principles and can do so through school, law enforcement, community, workplace, family or other settings.
TRAINING, CONSULTATION, AND SUPERVISION
We are able to offer clinical consultation to individuals or programs seeking support for their clinical practice. As LCSWs, Ryan and Stacey both can offer clinical supervision for social workers earning licensure. Ryan also can supervise associate-level SOMB providers working toward full provider status. We also can train individuals, groups, organizations, human resources departments and others seeking to introduce restorative practices into their work.
