Ever thought of how therapy is designed and looks like? Surely it can't be a one-fits-all type of thing where you just sit in a room and tell your shrink what's been bothering you, like we see on TV. That is correct because therapy can actually be interesting, and that is why this podcast episode is about all 8 common types of therapy we use here at Mindbuffs.

On today’s unconventional podcast episode, our favorite nerdy duo talks about the 8 types of therapy and everything you need to know about them. They describe each type and how it can be effectively used to support clients. Kayla expresses that the main goal they agreed on upon making this episode was to encourage people to informatively advocate for themselves. Mat adds that it is also to provide listeners with the general knowledge that will not only enable them to follow on the conversations but also should have them access which ones they have used in therapy before.

This makes perfect sense because clients know the depth of their struggles. Knowing the help and support available to them would be the next best thing to getting them to see improvement in therapy.

Starting off with the therapy types that are medical-based, they will eventually move on to others that are evidence-based. These types are;

1. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
2. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
3. Solution Focused therapy
4. Sports Psychology
5. Internal Family Systems
6. Narrative Therapy
7. EMDR
8. Existential Therapy

Jumping in towards the end will be Minah, offering a client’s perspective and asking questions every regular person could be pondering. This Q and A will be composed of general questions listeners may have and will have answers right on the spot. If you have any questions we haven't covered, please reach out and we'll be happy to answer them.
