We have the training and empathy needed to understand the issue you face and the proven strategies to help.
Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) targets the THOUGHTS and BEHAVIORS that affect our wellbeing and impact how well we cope with stress and difficult situations.
The goal of CBT is to develop ways of thinking and behaving that promote better mood, stronger self-esteem and a richer quality of life.
CBT is:
BASED ON RESEARCH
The techniques used have been empirically tested and their efficacy demonstrated in thousands of research experiments.
GOAL ORIENTED
In some cases, the goal may be a reduction in symptoms (intensity and/or frequency). In other cases, the objective may be to have the confidence to engage in activities previously avoided or to develop better skills or habits.
PRESENT ORIENTED
The emphasis is on the factors that maintain a problem, with history being relevant only to the extent that it informs us about the current problem. This way, treatment is not made more complex or longer than needed to achieve the treatment goal(s).
