The full clinical toolkit.
Therapy at MBH is not one-size-fits-all. Your plan draws from the modalities best suited to your specific diagnoses, history, and recovery goals.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Identifies and restructures the thought patterns that drive addictive behavior and emotional dysregulation. The most researched therapy in behavioral health.
DBT
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Builds four core skill sets — mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness — essential for lasting recovery.
EMDR
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing targets traumatic memories at the neurological level — particularly effective for PTSD, trauma, and addiction with trauma roots.
Family
Family Therapy
Rebuilds communication, establishes healthy boundaries, and helps families become an asset to recovery rather than an unintentional obstacle.
Group
Group Therapy
Structured peer group sessions that build community, accountability, and shared understanding — a cornerstone of every level of care at MBH.
Holistic
Holistic Therapy
Mindfulness, breathwork, meditation, and body-based practices that address the neurological and physical dimensions of addiction alongside clinical work.
Music
Music Therapy
Uses musical engagement to access emotions, reduce stress, and process experiences that are difficult to articulate verbally — particularly effective in early recovery.
Yoga
Yoga Therapy
Therapeutic yoga rebuilds the mind-body connection disrupted by addiction, reduces cravings and anxiety, and develops somatic self-regulation skills.

Therapy is most effective when it's integrated.
A single modality can help. A carefully combined treatment plan, aligned across clinicians and levels of care, creates lasting change.
Individualized treatment plans
No two clients follow the same combination of therapies. Your clinical team designs a plan based on your specific diagnoses, history, and goals — and updates it as you progress.
Modality integration
Our therapies are designed to complement each other. CBT and DBT skills reinforce what you process in EMDR; group therapy builds the community that holistic practices ground you in.
Evidence-based standard
Every therapy we offer has a strong clinical evidence base. We use what works — and we measure outcomes to confirm that it's working for each individual client.
Dual-diagnosis capable
All therapeutic modalities are delivered with co-occurring mental health conditions in mind. Our clinicians are trained to treat the full clinical picture, not just the addiction.
Most insurance covers therapy at MBH.
Individual, group, and specialized therapy is covered by most private insurance plans under mental health and substance use disorder benefits. We verify your coverage before treatment begins — at no cost.
