Treatment always begins with assessment. The objective is to understand the client's current problems and their history, and gain an appreciation of all of the factors (including physiological, social and psychological processes) that may be playing a role. The assessment may include psychological tests, which are used to provide objective information about the problem. Testing is available for both children and adults. Family sessions may also be included in the assessment.

Treatment is offered in individual, family and group formats, depending on the specific problem, the age of the individual seeking help, as well as individual preferences.

The treatment approach is probably best described as eclectic. Cognitive-Behavioral therapy is used to treat symptoms such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, pain, and weight control. Other psychotherapeutic approaches (e.g. Interpersonal Therapy) are used to explore issues related to family of origin, developmental transitions, and conflictual relationships.

The PsycheSoma approach is, most fundamentally, a practical one; in which clients receive the type of help that most directly and efficiently addresses their concerns. The mind-body philosophy of our centre is the basic assumption held by all members of our multidisciplinary team. Hence, treatment which integrates psychological, nutritional and fitness components is encouraged. Clients receive individualized treatment programs, including the specific type, combination, frequency and duration of interventions that they require.
