Delivering Culturally Responsive Care

The clinical team delivers culturally responsive, multilingual care using short- and long-term psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), psychoeducation, solution-focused therapy, and person-centered therapy. Clients can also access anger management, bereavement counseling, and parenting groups.
