Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a foundational therapeutic modality for many of the evidence-based treatments we use here at CCBH. This form of psychotherapy focuses on inaccurate, negative, or unhelpful ways of thinking (cognitions) and the ways they inform maladaptive (unhelpful or harmful) behaviors. Our goal in therapy would be to identify those cognitions and work to reframe or restructure them into accurate, positive, and helpful thoughts to inform adaptive, resilient, and coping behaviors.
