Eclectic Therapy

Eclectic therapy is a highly personalized therapeutic approach tailored to meet the individual client’s needs. It combines a variety of treatment orientations, techniques, and philosophies to create a custom program. Rather than adhering to a specific therapeutic approach, an eclectic therapist is flexible, using whichever techniques work best for a client. An eclectic therapist will usually balance listening and advice giving, as well as use all techniques that are available to them to treat their clients as successfully as possible.

In eclectic therapy, I combine techniques from various therapeutic approaches to best meet the unique needs of each client. By drawing from modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care, I tailor my approach to address the specific challenges clients face, ensuring flexibility and effectiveness in treatment. This integrative method allows me to provide personalized care that fosters healing and growth across diverse client populations.

I believe that every individual is unique, with their own set of experiences, beliefs, and goals. This perspective shapes my eclectic approach, allowing me to integrate techniques from different therapies—such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), humanistic therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness practices. By combining elements from these frameworks, I can adapt when needed in order to better assist you in treatment.

Eclectic therapy sounds fancier than it is. Eclectic therapy draws from multiple theories and techniques. It is a flexible and multifaceted approach to therapy that allows the therapist to use the most effective methods available to address each individual client's needs. As a former teacher I am ingrained with the idea that every human is unique with their own learning styles and coping skills. My goal is to try to always meet the client where they are. Your therapy will be unique to you.

I valued YOUR individuality and Eclectic therapy blends relevant evidence-based treatments to create a highly individualized treatment plan to meet YOUR needs. Eclectic therapy integrates your values, your goals, and your personality with treatments that are accommodating, flexible, and dynamic. Rather than utilizing rigid treatment protocols, an Eclectic approach tends to feel safe, relaxed, and catered to you. This balance supports personal growth with a validating, comfortable vibe.

I use many theoretical approaches & multiple sets of techniques to address my clients' individualized needs. Therapy is not an exact science, and requires trial & error to determine the most effective course of treatment. I have ample training & experience in the treatment orientations listed below. Holistic therapy is overarching, as I view each person as a whole individual, in mind/body/spirit and separate from their problems.

An eclectic theoretical approach is utilized to meet the varied needs of clients. Clients like their issues are unique, and because of this uniqueness, clients require different levels of interactions, and counseling approaches. Eclectic therapy is not a concrete or rigid model. Instead it encompasses an array of interventions to meet the needs of the client.

— Deahdra Chambers, Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Biscoe, NC

In my practice, I utilize a variety of modalities and theoretical orientations. To me, there is no one size fits all therapy. I believe that by creating a collaborative, therapeutic relationship with my clients, they can discover the tools within themselves to create meaningful change.

Eclectic Therapy is a flexible and integrative approach to psychotherapy that combines techniques and principles from different therapeutic modalities based on the client’s unique needs, preferences, and challenges.

No one person fits into a standard intervention style and are proud of our unique approach to therapy.

I consider myself the anti-magician of therapy. Early on I will help you define goals and come back with a menu of recommended, research based treatment options.
