This virtual group is for Queer Adults in BC who are wanting to gain skills to manage and reduce anxiety. This group is facilitated by Michael Silverthorne (RCC # 22195) and runs for 6 two hour sessions. This group recognizes that anxiety does not occur in a vacuum. Social context, identity, and lived experience matter. This group strives to be inclusive, respectful, and grounded in community care. My approach utilizes CBT and is gender- and sexuality-affirming, rooted in community care, and responsive to the unique challenges queer individuals and families may face.
Michael's approach to therapy is grounded in a family-of-origin focus and a common factors framework, integrating evidence-based models including Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ( CBT).

Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Support Groups
How does cognitive behavioural therapy work?
Cognitive behavioural therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophising or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioural therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioural therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioural therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
