Feeling overwhelmed, hopeless or stuck? When we are feeling miserable, our life is not moving in the direction we want, and everything we have tried so far has not worked - it can lead us to despair. These feelings are only made worse when we believe that there is no one we can turn to or no one else could understand. I am here to say that you do not have to go through this alone, and despite how it may seem right now, these feelings do not have to dominate your life. Working together, we would collaborate to try new strategies so that you can move closer to the life you want to live.

I work with adolescents and adults that struggle with a number of issues that include depression, anxiety, self-worth issues, and family conflict to name a few. I have a great deal of experience working with male adolescents, but I am not limited to this population and have had success working with adults of all kinds. A young adult struggling with where they fit into this world, an adult who is still processing though their past while looking to better their present and future, or just someone that is ready to open up and learn about themselves, I am here to process it all with you and collaborate on the growth and progress ahead.

Cognitive Processing (CPT) Therapists

How does cognitive processing therapy work?

A CPT therapist helps a client evaluate their thoughts about the trauma they experienced, focusing on maladaptive or self-blaming thoughts that can exacerbate symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, or depression. The therapist will work with a client to help them learn to challenge such thoughts and consider different perspectives. The therapist is also likely to ask a client to work on these techniques at home between meetings, such as writing an account of their trauma that can be read aloud during a future session.

What is cognitive processing therapy for PTSD?

Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy primarily used in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to treat individuals who experienced abuse or violence, who survived natural disasters, who were first responders to such incidents, or who otherwise experienced trauma.

How long does cognitive processing therapy last?

CPT is a short-term therapy. Whether conducted one-on-one or in a group, a complete set of CPT sessions typically includes 12 weekly sessions, along with tasks for clients to complete at home, although this can vary depending on a client’s needs or a therapist’s particular treatment plan. Sessions typically last 60 or 90 minutes.

How effective is cognitive processing therapy?

A large body of research supports the use of CPT to treat people experiencing PTSD, finding it to be effective among different age groups, either in one-on-one therapy sessions or in a group therapy environment. Research suggests that although the initial sessions may be difficult, clients tend to begin to feel positive progress after the first few sessions, and that the benefits tend to last well after the therapy ends.
