Is your child struggling in school or at home but no one seems to understand why? To be able to effect change and make progress, a problem must be thoroughly understood. Many times, a problem will manifest as a function of disruptions that are occurring in the environments in which the individual interacts with regularly.

I fit a variety of theoretical orientations to everyones unique needs and utilize a CBT structure as guidance.
Guidance on how to cope through a difficult time, adjust to new circumstances and to re-discover who you may be in this very moment may be the initial steps to a whole new beginning. You might be going through relationship conflicts, adjusting to change or feeling like things are out of control. Anxiety symptoms may be enhanced or you feel like there is not many people you can go to that will understand. The goal is to feel at ease, to want to come to sessions and to explore unaddressed emotions, improve the ability to cope, and manage conflicts that prevent us from finding a balance. We will work together to create that balance.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral 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 catastrophizing 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 behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral 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 behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral 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.
