What Is Cognitive Behavior Therapy?

CBT Thoughts create Feelings which create Behaviors which reinforce thoughts

What Is CBT?

Simply stated: Your Thoughts influence your Feelings which in turn influence your Behaviors. Behaviors fuel the perceptions people form of each other and of themselves.
   

We Intervene Across All Three Levels.

You'll learn how to identify and dispute irrational thinking patterns which in turn will help you better regulate your emotions.  

The Result? 

  More effective behavior choices--Decisions arrived at by reasonable assessment and not driven by negative emotions (anxiety, anger, loneliness).

The Cognitive Part


We teach clients how to identify and

change thought patterns leading to

anxiety, irritability, anger, and depression. 

The thoughts that sap your

motivation, block you from achieving

your goals and frankly from feeling

happy.

The Behavior Part


We help you to define the behaviors that you want to:

 

  1. Increase (Confidence, Happiness, Efficiency) 
  2. Decrease (Panic Attacks, Obsessive Thinking, Social Anxiety) 
  3. Cultivate (Assertiveness, Social Skills) 

 

Each behavior is  broken down into smaller, observable goals. We then partner with you to work through and
achieve each of these sub-goals.
