At Off•Script™️, we understand ​that trauma can deeply affect ​not just individuals but entire ​family systems. Our approach ​is holistic and tailored, ensuring ​that each client’s care is as ​unique as their story. Our ​licensed professional ​counselors are skilled in various ​therapeutic techniques that ​provide relief and ​understanding for those ​navigating the complexities of ​trauma.

Off•Script™ by Tactful Disruption® is dedicated to providing innovative and ​personalized mental health services. Integrating expressive therapy and postmodern ​approaches aligns with its mission to become the Nike of mental health in several ways:


  • Holistic and Personalized Care: By incorporating expressive therapies, Off•Script™ ​offers clients diverse tools to explore their emotions and experiences, ​accommodating different preferences and needs.


  • Empowerment and Resilience: Postmodern approaches like narrative therapy and ​SFBT help clients reshape their stories and focus on strengths, promoting ​empowerment and resilience.


  • Client-Centered Approach: Both expressive therapy and postmodern approaches ​prioritize the client's perspective and active participation in the therapeutic process, ​ensuring that services are tailored to individual needs.


  • Innovative Techniques: These approaches reflect Off•Script™'s commitment to ​staying at the forefront of mental health practices by using creative and ​contemporary methods to support clients’ mental health journeys.

Childhood trauma refers to a ​distressing or disturbing ​experience that a child ​undergoes before the age of 18, ​which could have lasting adverse ​effects on their mental, physical, ​social, emotional, or spiritual well-​being. Types of trauma can ​include abuse, neglect, witnessing ​violence, sudden loss of a loved ​one, or any event that ​significantly threatens the safety ​or well-being of the child or ​someone close to them.

Treatment Modalities

Eye Movement ​Desensitization and ​Reprocessing (EMDR):

A therapy designed to ​alleviate distress ​associated with ​traumatic memories.


Trauma-Focused ​Cognitive Behavioral ​Therapy (TF-CBT): A ​form of psychotherapy ​that specifically ​addresses the emotional ​and psychological ​challenges related to ​traumatic experiences.


Expressive Therapy:

This form of therapy ​can be particularly ​effective for ​individuals dealing ​with trauma, ​emotional distress, or ​mental health ​disorders.


Family Therapy: ​Addresses the impact ​of trauma on the ​family unit and helps ​family members ​support each other.


Narrative Therapy:

Focuses on the stories ​individuals tell about their ​lives and experiences, ​aiming to reframe negative ​or limiting narratives into ​more positive and ​empowering ones.


Solution-Focused Brief ​Therapy (SFBT): ​Concentrates on identifying ​and building upon the ​client’s strengths and ​resources to find solutions ​to their problems, rather ​than focusing on the ​problems themselves.
