Welcome to Rose City Therapeutics

The mission at Rose City Therapeutics is to help clients navigate their mental health challenges by addressing both intrinsic and extrinsic factors that underlie these challenges. Intrinsic factors include individual characteristic that may be genetically-based, as well as the functionality of the brain and nervous system. Extrinsic factors include the environment in which the individual grew up and lives in currently, as well, including the impacts of family-of-origin and society. We use an eclectic mixture of theoretical frameworks to address both sets of factors, such as cognitive processing therapy, cognitive behavioral therapies, narrative therapy, feminist therapy, and neurocounseling. Neurocounseling is a relatively new theoretical framework of mental health counseling that uses neuroscience and brain health to conceptualize and treat mental health challenges. Some interventions of neurocounseling include neurpsychoeducation, neurofeedback, other brain-focused activities such as cognitive training, movement and balance training, mindfulness training, and more.

When working with children, Dr.Jams tailors therapy to fit the needs of the child. This includes using behavioral techniques that incorporate some techniques of neurocounseling ("neuro-behavioral therapy"), often using game and play for specific tasks, or through more traditional relational-type play therapy, including playing games, using puppets, etc., as driven by the child's interest that does not involve overt behavioral techniques or neurocounseling.
