Talk to our intake team →Our integrative psychodynamic approach goes deeper than symptom management — exploring what's actually driving anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, identity questions, and life transitions. We work with EMDR, IFS, AEDP, CBT, and ExRP — selected for you, not applied as a formula.
Most couples aren't fighting about what they think they're fighting about. Our couples therapists are trained in EFT and work with all relationship structures — LGBTQIA+, ENM, polyamorous, kink-aware — in a space that is affirming without qualification. Sex-positive therapy available for partners navigating intimacy, desire, shame, and sexual identity.
Teen distress doesn't always look like distress — it looks like irritability, withdrawal, falling grades, constant conflict. Our teen therapists are trained to meet young people where they actually are, using an attachment-based, developmentally informed approach that respects a teen's need for autonomy. With appropriate consent, we bring in caregivers as allies — not reporters.

Supervision, consultation,
and clinical education
BIPS offers clinical supervision and consultation for early-career and advanced clinicians — grounded in the same values of depth, humility, and ongoing growth that define our clinical culture.
Our supervisors include licensed clinical psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, and licensed mental health counselors who receive ongoing specialized training and case consultation themselves. We take the development of early-career clinicians seriously — because good supervision shapes good therapy.
We also offer an ongoing clinical education program for BIPS staff, including seminars, case consultation groups, and specialized training in evidence-based approaches.
Therapy approaches
woven into every session
For trauma and distressing memories — helps the brain fully process experiences that feel stuck.
Corrective emotional experiences through the therapeutic relationship — emotion as the engine of healing.
Works with different "parts" of your inner world to reduce conflict and build self-compassion.
Attachment-based couples therapy that helps partners shift the negative cycle and rebuild safety.
Practical, evidence-based tools for reshaping unhelpful thought patterns — anxiety, depression, OCD.
The gold-standard treatment for OCD — systematic, structured, and supported.
Breath, sensation, movement, nervous system regulation — for healing talk alone can't always reach.
Support through pregnancy, postpartum, loss, and the identity shifts that come with becoming a parent.
Specialized, affirming,
and grounded in justice
Many BIPS clinicians have pursued advanced training beyond their license — in the specific approaches and populations they serve. They don't generalize. They go deep.
And they do it within a practice where social justice is a clinical orientation, not a mission statement. How power, identity, and systemic context shape mental health is not a side conversation here — it's part of the work.
Rigorous post-graduate programs in EMDR, IFS, AEDP, EFT, ExRP, somatic approaches, perinatal mental health — not weekend workshops.
Each therapist receives supervision and clinical education targeted to their specialty — supervised by licensed clinical psychologists, LCSWs, and LMHCs who receive ongoing specialized training themselves.
Race, gender, sexuality, class, immigration status, disability — central to how we understand people and practice therapy.
You're paired with someone whose clinical training, approach, and availability fit your needs and schedule.
Affirming across gender, sexuality, race, culture, religion, body, and relationship structure — unconditionally.
