"Restoration Therapy is a Marriage and Family Therapeutic Model that efficiently identifies a client’s identity and safety patterns, while empowering client emotional regulation and mindfulness for behavioral change. Restoration Therapy combines the advantages of Attachment Theory, Emotional Regulation and Mindfulness in an efficient and organized fashion that allows both the therapist and client to clearly understand old destructive patterns of behavior and promote change. One of the main advantages of RT is it approach provides the therapist with a clear understanding how violations of love and trustworthiness develop into problems of identity and safety. This keeps the therapist organized and focused on patterns difficult for clients to change. As the therapist makes these identity and safety patterns known, clients can be helped by making more thoughtful and informed choices about personal beliefs about self and relationships resulting in long lasting behavior change." - Terry Hargrave
