Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

We often believe that situations cause our feelings, but CBT teaches that it is actually our interpretation of those situations that drives our emotions. If you feel stuck in a loop of worry or negativity, we help you catch those automatic thoughts, challenge them, and find a clearer, more balanced path forward.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-oriented therapy that focuses on the powerful connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

When we are stressed or anxious, our thinking often becomes distorted. We might catastrophize (“It’s all going to go wrong”) or engage in black-and-white thinking (“I’m a total failure”). CBT helps you:

• Identify these automatic negative thoughts.

• Challenge their accuracy with evidence.

• Replace them with realistic, helpful perspectives.

The Evidence Base

CBT is widely considered the “gold standard” for many mental health conditions due to its massive evidence base. Thousands of clinical studies have demonstrated its effectiveness.

The science relies on the Cognitive Model. Neuroscience research confirms that by altering the neural pathways associated with negative thinking patterns (a process called cognitive restructuring), we can physically change the brain’s emotional response. It is a collaborative, skills-based approach that empowers you to become your own therapist over time.
