Treatment Approaches
Treatment can take a variety of forms, including both individual
therapy and group therapy.
Dr. Katzinger provides individual therapy services to children, adolescents, and parents. Individual therapy includes education, guidance, support, direction, and instruction in order to overcome presenting difficulties. Dr. Katzinger's treatment approach is primarily cognitive-behavioral (CBT), which is widely accepted as an evidence- and empiricism-based, cost-effective psychotherapy for many mood, anxiety, and behavioral disorders. In addition, it is also important to recognize the impact one's environment (e.g. family, friends, work, school) has on him or her. Depending on the age of the client, therapeutic play might be incorporated.
Parent coaching is a treatment approach that is offered. Parent coaching is ideal for families who have children with disruptive behaviors such as defiance, arguing, task refusal, aggression, overactivity, and impulsivity as well as for families that are newly blended through marriage, adoption, or foster care. Some typical problems faced by many parents include how to say no and not give in, chore compliance, academic motivation, how to have respectful two-way conversations, homework completion, and sibling conflicts.
Treatment might also take the form of a consultation with important persons in the client's life including extended family and/or teachers. This type of treatment is brief and highly solution focused. It is ideal for specific problems that have recently emerged or when communication between individuals is strained.
Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy is currently offered both as a stand-alone therapy and as an adjunct to traditional in office therapy. Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) incorporates horses experientially for emotional growth and learning. It is a collaborative effort between a licensed mental health professional and an equine specialist working with the clients and horses to address treatment goals.
