CBT Therapy
(Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
Think of CBT as a toolkit for your mind. It gives you tools to understand and change unhelpful thoughts, manage your emotions, and make choices that lead to a happier and more fulfilling life. It's like learning to be your own coach to overcome life's challenges.
​
Let's break it down...
-
Understand how your thoughts and beliefs impact the way you feel and behave.
-
Restructure unhelpful beliefs about yourself.
-
Learn to question your thoughts and modify your behavior in response to unhelpful thinking patterns.
-
Process your life experiences and integrate them into who you are now.
-
Build up your toolbox of coping skills to help you let go of dysfunctional patterns and internal conflicts.
-
Identify how difficult emotions like anxiety, shame and burnout show up in your body.

Traditionally, CBT is pretty structured and requires an agenda for each session. However, I typically use CBT in a much less controlled way. I prefer to incorporate techniques rooted in CBT theory into my sessions.
