Treatment Approaches

Evidence-Based Therapy, Personalized for You

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Dr. Chelsea Brieman uses collaborative, evidence-based approaches selected around your needs, experiences and treatment goals. Hover over an approach—or tap on a touchscreen—to learn more.

CBT Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy examines the connection between your thoughts, emotions and behaviors. CBT can help you recognize patterns that contribute to anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, depression and burnout.

Treatment focuses on practical strategies that help you challenge unhelpful beliefs, approach situations differently and respond to stress with greater confidence and clarity.

DBT Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides practical tools for managing intense emotions, navigating difficult situations and improving relationships.

DBT-based strategies may include mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help you respond thoughtfully instead of feeling controlled by the emotion of the moment.

CPT Cognitive Processing Therapy

Cognitive Processing Therapy is a structured, trauma-focused form of cognitive behavioral therapy commonly used in the treatment of PTSD and trauma-related symptoms.

CPT helps you identify and examine “stuck points”—beliefs involving safety, trust, control, guilt, shame or self-worth that may have developed following a traumatic experience.

PE Prolonged Exposure Therapy

Prolonged Exposure Therapy is an evidence-based treatment for PTSD and trauma-related anxiety. Trauma can lead people to avoid memories, emotions, situations or activities that feel connected to what happened.

Through a carefully paced and collaborative process, PE helps reduce avoidance and allows you to safely process traumatic experiences so they have less control over your present life.

MBT Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-based interventions help you develop greater awareness of your thoughts, emotions and physical responses without immediately judging or reacting to them.

These strategies can reduce rumination, improve emotional regulation and help you remain grounded when stress, anxiety or your inner critic begins taking over.

MI Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative and nonjudgmental approach that can help when part of you wants to make a change while another part feels uncertain, hesitant or overwhelmed.

The process helps you clarify what matters most, explore barriers to change and strengthen your confidence in taking meaningful next steps.

CBCT Cognitive Behavioral Conjoint Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Conjoint Therapy is designed to address the ways trauma and PTSD can affect a couple’s relationship, communication, trust and emotional connection.

Treatment helps couples improve communication, reduce avoidance, strengthen mutual support and work together toward recovery. Suitability for conjoint therapy is determined through consultation and assessment.

Your treatment plan will be individualized. Following an initial assessment, Dr. Brieman will recommend an approach based on your concerns, goals and readiness for treatment.
