What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a structured and goal oriented approach that helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is one of the most researched and effective forms of therapy for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and self esteem challenges.

​

In CBT, we work together to identify unhelpful thought patterns or beliefs that may be contributing to emotional distress or getting in the way of your goals. Once we recognize these patterns, we begin to gently challenge and reshape them, helping you build more balanced, compassionate, and realistic ways of thinking.

​

CBT also focuses on behavior, what you do and how your actions affect your mood. You will learn coping tools and strategies to break out of unhelpful cycles, reduce emotional suffering, and make choices that align with your values and the life you want to live.

How CBT Can Help You

CBT is practical, empowering, and designed to create real change. It gives you skills you can use in everyday life, both inside and outside of therapy. Many clients find that CBT helps them feel more in control, less stuck, and more capable of managing difficult emotions or situations.

Whether you are dealing with ongoing challenges or facing something new, CBT provides a roadmap for navigating it with more clarity, confidence, and calm.
