Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
Have you had a healthcare professional recommend Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) but you don’t know what CBT is or who provides this type of treatment? Or are you searching for the right therapist for you but are confused by too much alphabet soup of credentials that leaves you feeling confused, possibly overwhelmed, and without the progress you are seeking?
What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and how can it help?
CBT is a type of counseling, a theoretical approach, and a roadmap to healing. There are many different mental health licenses and professional specialties, and even different licenses in different states. CBT is one of many types or theories of how therapy works, but CBT is most often recommended as it is one of the oldest, most respected, highly validated forms of treatment used in a wide range of therapy settings. CBT works on how our thinking affects our choices, behaviors, and outcomes. Simply put, change your thinking and you can change your life.
If you are looking for help to understand where your thoughts may be sabotaging your happiness and find your path to a more fulfilling life, CBT may be the answer for you.
