For three years in a row, we have been recognized at the LOVE Awards by Main Line Parent. This year, we were honored as a 2025 LOVE Award Winner: Mental Health Champion!

Our CEO & Founder, Cara Dixon, LPC, NCC, EMDRIA Certified Therapist and Consultant (pictured, left), and Clinical Supervisor Caitlin Brady, LCSW, CEDS, EMDRIA Certified Therapist and Consultant-In-Training (pictured, right), were able to be a part of the special night and accept the award on behalf of the entire Growth Minded team!

It is the compassion, professionalism, and passion for helping others our entire team embodies that allows us to be known as a safe place to go for support.

These nominations and awards are based solely on feedback from the community, such as this heartwarming recommendation we received with the award this year:

“I feel so cared for and truly listened to every time I see my therapist at Growth Minded. They truly care so much about each of their clients and I feel so honored to be a part of their community every time that I go see them.”

Resourced: Meet Our New IOP!

A new group is open now with our Clinical Director, Christine Dehmey, LPC! Christine has been a Clinical Director in higher level of care programs for over 10 years. She has specialty training in Schema, EMDR, and a vast knowledge of other effective therapeutic modalities.

Together, with Cara Dixon, LPC, NCC, EMDR Consultant and Certified EMDR Therapist, the team has developed a highly specialized IOP curriculum.

Growth Minded's Resourced IOP is developed in modules to invite a more structured and intentional approach to care, while the groups remain small so treatment can be customized to each client. This helps to not just manage symptoms, but instead offer effective trauma focused treatment so clients experience healing and a restored sense of hope, sense of self, and a path forward.

After attending this group, participants will understand impacts and presentations of trauma, while learning about their modes and schemas. Individuals will engage in daily practices to cognitively restructure core beliefs, while gaining a deeper understanding of different emotional parts. There will be opportunities for experiential engagement through mode dialogue, in conjunction with DBT and CBT skills used as meaningful tools to expand their window of tolerance.

Group members will have a corrective emotional experience to help heal core wounds, and the opportunity to be connected to an individual trauma therapist, if needed, for further trauma reprocessing work.

Growth Minded's IOP is now in network with Optum, Quest, IBX, and Allied Trade in an effort to increase access to quality support!

There are also private pay rates available.

Spaces are limited in these groups, so inquire today if you, a client, or a loved one could benefit from this specialized treatment!

Growth Minded has earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval ⭐️

Thank you to our team & supports!

From the beginning, Growth Minded's mission has been to provide quality services that promote optimal growth in individuals, families, couples, communities, and organizations.
Over the years, we have worked tirelessly to build our support offerings, including our recently launched specialty IOP (intensive outpatient program). That being said, we wanted to be sure we were not just growing, but growing in a way that maintained competency, professionalism, and high standards of care.

Our work towards Joint Commission Accreditation ensures that we meet over 1,000 behavioral health standards of care for everyone we serve. We are incredibly proud of our hardworking team, and hope that our entire network continues to think of Growth Minded as a safe, professional and supportive place to care for those in need.
