# What type of therapy modality is right for me?

## There are many different types of therapy approaches, and a decision on which is best for you can be made in collaboration with your therapist!

Many of our therapists practice a variety of approaches and often combine them into a treatment plan. Some examples of approaches include:

- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Mindfulness
- And many more — explore our full range of approaches in the article below.

 You can read more about it in this article: [How To Choose The Right Therapy Approach](https://www.shiftcollab.com/blog/how-to-choose-the-right-therapy-approach)!
