Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is results oriented and goal-oriented, focused on helping you achieve desired changes in your life. Our thoughts and beliefs affect our feelings, actions and decision-making. By examining and altering our thoughts and the way we talk to ourselves throughout the day we can drastically affect our mood, self esteem, and our actions! We can make huge positive changes in our lives.
If we think, "I'm going to fail that test,” it can generate enough anxiety to make studying difficult and less productive, lower our grade - and maybe cause headaches, indigestion, or “accidentally” oversleeping. cognitive Therapy helps develop more accurate, more realistic thoughts that enhance our mood, confidence, performance - and relationships!
The Cognitive Therapist and client agree each week on new behaviors to explore and implement between sessions, to enhance thoughts, feelings and behavior more readily. Why limit improvement efforts to just one hour per week? The Cognitive Therapy relationship is collaborative; goals are clear; and the process is individualized according to your needs and desires. Research consistently shows Cognitive Therapy to be one of the most effective treatments for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship problems, etc.
