Therapeutic Modalities at Restore Balance
At Restore Balance, we offer a wide range of therapy modalities in Atlanta, GA, designed to meet you where you are and support your unique path to healing. Our clinicians combine evidence-based practices with holistic approaches to help you move beyond survival and into balance, resilience, and growth. Whether you’re seeking support for trauma, anxiety, depression, or identity exploration, we tailor our methods to fit your needs.
Trauma-Informed Therapy
Our trauma-informed approach prioritizes emotional safety, regulation, and empowerment. By addressing how trauma affects the nervous system, we help you build resilience and reclaim balance in your life.
Exposure-Based Techniques
For clients facing trauma, phobias, or anxiety, we use elements of exposure therapy. This helps decrease sensitivity to triggers and expands your “window of tolerance,” fostering healthier emotional responses.
Cognitive & Behavioral Strategies
Our therapists integrate cognitive-behavioral techniques to help clients manage intrusive thoughts, restructure unhelpful patterns, and develop practical coping strategies that align with their personal values.
Strengths-Based & Client-Centered Therapy
Healing isn’t only about what’s “wrong.” We highlight your strengths, foster self-discovery, and build a collaborative therapeutic relationship that supports long-term transformation.
Core Therapeutic Approaches
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy uses deep relaxation to access the subconscious mind, helping you address challenges such as trauma, anxiety, addiction, chronic pain, and behavioral concerns like smoking or binge eating. By creating new neural pathways, hypnotherapy empowers lasting change.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based approach designed to help individuals heal from traumatic experiences and distressing memories. Using guided bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements or tapping, EMDR helps the brain reprocess painful events in a safe and controlled way, reducing emotional intensity and promoting lasting relief. It can be particularly effective for trauma, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress.
Holistic Mind-Body-Spirit Connection
Our holistic approach recognizes the interconnection of emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Through mind-body practices, stress management strategies, and wellness tools, we help clients restore balance and prevent burnout.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy is an innovative modality that combines the therapeutic benefits of ketamine with guided psychotherapy. KAP can provide breakthrough healing for treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and anxiety by enhancing neuroplasticity and allowing deeper access to emotional processing. At Restore Balance, KAP is approached with compassion, safety, and integration to maximize long-term growth.
