Therapy Modalities We Use
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy originally used for veterans and first responders who were experiencing PTSD symptoms in response to trauma. This treatment enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of overwhelming life experiences or trauma.
The brain’s desire for balance does the work for the individual. This is a treatment where you are not talking about the events in detail, but through dual attention stimulation (right brain, left brain exercises), so the brain and the body can start to heal.
EMDR may be a good fit if you are navigating symptoms associated with past trauma that may or may not be contributing to anxiety, eating disorders, dissociation, substance abuse, and/or emotional dysregulation.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (emdr)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is a specific type of cognitive behavioral therapy that was originally created to treat chronically suicidal individuals diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and it is now recognized as the gold standard psychological treatment for many illnesses.
Clarity's director was formally trained by Behavioral Tech in 2009 at Columbia University and is determined to providing best practice best practice to individuals and families who would benefit from this form of treatment.
Since then, the whole Clarity Counseling team has receiving training and/or certification in DBT and RO-DBT. DBT may be helpful if you are looking for support around mindfulness, effective relationships, regulating emotions, and tolerating discomfort.

Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT) is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy developed by Dr. Thomas R. Lynch for disorders of emotional overcontrol. It prioritizes social-signaling as the primary mechanism as change based on research that shows overcontrolled individuals have a heightened bio-temperamental threat sensitivity that makes it more difficult for them to enter into their neurobiologically based social-safety system. RO DBT teaches clients how to express emotions in a context-appropriate way and to use non-verbal social-signaling strategies to enhance social connectedness.
The Clarity team are all Level 1 or Level 2 certified in Radically Open Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (RO-DBT) by the developer, Dr. Thomas Lynch, PhD.
RO-DBT may be helpful if you are over-controlled and experiencing symptoms of depression, eating disorders, anxiety, grief, and/or OCD.

Family-Based Therapy (FBT) is an evidence-based treatment for eating disorders that empowers parents to play an active role in their child’s recovery. The founder of Clarity Counseling and several team members were classically trained by Stanford and UCSF experts Dr. James Lock and Dr. Daniel Le Grange, bringing this gold-standard approach to Clarity since 2021. FBT unfolds in three structured phases, helping families restore health, rebuild autonomy, and strengthen lasting recovery together.

frequently asked questions
Do you accept insurance?
Clarity is an out-of-network group practice. We are preferred providers with Tricare/Humana and hold CSA contracts with local counties. We provide super bills at the end of each month (or session if you prefer) to submit to your insurance company for direct reimbursement.
What Ages Do you Work with?
Because mental health does not discriminate, we are equipped and experienced in working with a wide variety of ages. If you or your child has an eating disorder, we are able to work with them starting at age 5. If your child is presenting with trauma or mental health symptoms, we usually start with 10 years and older due to the team only having limited play therapists on the team.
What are your fees?
The cost of therapy sessions depends on the location were services are rendered. Treatment can range from $110 to $240. Residents and supervisees do offer treatment at a reduced rate.
Do you have evening and weekend availability?
Yes! Because eating disorders onset in early to mid adolescence, we are committed to offering afternoon and evening sessions. Our Gainesville location also offer weekend hours at this time. We also have daytime availability for those who have the ability to meet during the day, but we work hard to reduce barriers to treatment to the best of our ability.
finding healing in community
At Clarity, group therapy is about building skills, finding community, and knowing you’re not alone. Whether you join us virtually or in person, our groups are designed to support you with evidence-based tools while offering the encouragement of peers walking a similar path.
