Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a widely-used form of mental health treatment that can help you understand and change the thoughts and behaviors that may be causing you distress. It's like a workout for your mind, teaching you practical skills to deal with challenges like anxiety, depression, or stress.
In CBT, you'll work closely with a trained therapist to identify specific problems and set achievable goals. Together, you'll explore patterns in your thinking that may be holding you back and develop strategies to overcome them. Sessions are typically focused, goal-oriented, and take place over a limited number of weeks.
Whether you're struggling with a specific issue or just looking for ways to improve your overall emotional wellbeing, CBT offers a hands-on approach that can lead to meaningful and lasting change. It's a flexible therapy that can be tailored to your individual needs, making it a popular choice for many seeking support and growth in their mental health journey.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is much more than sitting and talking about whatever comes to mind during a session. CBT sessions are structured to ensure that the therapist and the person in treatment are focused on the different goals of each session, which in turn ensures that each and every session is productive.
