Empowerment
Healing
Welcome
The Critical Therapy Institute (CTI) focuses on teaching, research and the application of critical therapy in advisory, consulting, and educational services. Critical Therapy provides psychotherapy to individuals, couples, groups, and families, as well as consulting services and training to non-profit and for-profit organizations and businesses.
Created in 2012 (formerly CTC) to offer more than comfort, adjustment, and accommodation, unlike traditional psychotherapy, we believe therapy should be transformational and empowering, moving people to action. We offer a unique approach and help our patients and clients to achieve clarity and resolution with respect to life transitions and relationships, opening new possibilities for action and self-understanding. We pay special attention to how race, class, gender, and religion influence one’s identity.
CTI is a vibrant community whose members and candidates believe in the transformative power of psychotherapy to change the world. Our goal is empowerment, liberation and healing. Join us and be a part the transformation.
