Specialized Therapy and Counseling Services at Fairbanks House
Our therapeutic services are offered in both individual and group settings, allowing clients to explore their inner world in a safe, supportive environment while also building connection and community with others who understand their journey. We are deeply committed to helping clients process unresolved trauma, navigate complex emotions, and build lifelong coping strategies to maintain stability and thrive beyond treatment.
Core therapies at Fairbanks House include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps clients identify and reframe negative thought patterns and behaviors contributing to depression, anxiety, OCD, and more.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Ideal for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, particularly for those with borderline personality disorder and intense mood fluctuations.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): Trauma-focused therapy designed to help individuals safely process and release disturbing memories or PTSD-related symptoms.
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Guides clients in developing psychological flexibility and self-compassion by embracing difficult emotions rather than avoiding them.
- Experiential Therapy: Uses role play, creative expression, and interactive experiences to uncover and work through deep-seated emotional wounds.
- Individual Therapy: One-on-one sessions offer personalized guidance and trauma processing.
- Group Therapy: Fosters connection, shared learning, and peer support.
Each session is carefully designed to promote self-awareness, emotional regulation, and personal empowerment. Whether a client is working one-on-one with a therapist or participating in a small group session, they are met with clinical excellence, warmth, and empathy. The result is a powerful, healing environment where individuals can safely explore their challenges and begin building the tools they need for a fulfilling, balanced life.
Holistic and Alternative Treatments at Fairbanks House
Our holistic offerings include:
Gentle, therapeutic yoga sessions are tailored to support emotional and physical recovery. Clients are guided through mindful movements and breathwork that foster body awareness, reduce anxiety, relieve stress, and promote inner peace. Yoga therapy is especially helpful for individuals coping with trauma, as it offers a safe and grounding way to process emotions without needing to speak. Set against the serene backdrop of our outdoor meditation space or quiet indoor areas, yoga sessions offer a restorative reset for both the nervous system and the spirit.
Conducted in our spacious, green outdoor areas, equine therapy invites clients to interact with horses in a calm, structured environment. These sessions help individuals build confidence, set boundaries, develop trust, and improve emotional regulation through non-verbal communication with the animal. Horses mirror human emotions, allowing clients to gain insight into their own patterns, feelings, and behaviors. This nature-based approach is particularly effective for those dealing with anxiety, PTSD, and relational challenges.
These holistic therapies are more than just supplementary activities, but powerful tools for growth and self-discovery. By stepping outside of traditional talk therapy and engaging in experiential, body-based practices, clients often find new pathways to healing that feel deeply intuitive and personally meaningful. Whether working through a yoga flow under the California sun or quietly connecting with a horse in the fresh Rancho Santa Fe air, these experiences invite moments of clarity, calm, and transformation.
