Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Autumn Counseling Services LLC

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

We use CBT with clients to help challenge negative or irrational thoughts to reduce anxiety and depression. We work together over time to identify more positive realistic beliefs or thought patterns to replace the negative beliefs. This type of therapy can also address low self esteem or negative view of self. CBT is about how emotions, thoughts, and behaviors relate to each other.

How we think about things affects our behaviors. How we behave affects how we think and what we believe. Too often our beliefs about ourselves or other people do what they do are distorted or incomplete. Challenging those beliefs opens up new ways of behaving and interacting with ourselves and the world.

Learning coping tools to improve functioning, changing underlying thought patterns or perspectives we've held that don't serve us, and re-evaluating our motivations or circumstances, can help us see or understand our challenges in a different way, and respond effectively. Processing thought patterns and responses through a CBT lens have been shown to be hugely effective with anxiety and depression, as well as with trauma and a wide array of mental health issues.

The change principles of CBT exist throughout all approaches to counseling. The key is knowing when and how to focus on our beliefs, behaviors, and the way we treat our own feelings. Sometimes it’s most helpful to pay close attention to the bricks and mortar of our minds – through mindfulness, problem-solving, journaling, and other activities – to begin to change embedded patterns.

While the current vogue is to combine cognitive and behavioral therapies into one school of thought, I see them as two fundamentally different techniques that work powerfully together. Cognitive therapy helps us modify our reactions by reexamining our fundamental assumptions. And behavioral modification is a way of tracking and rebuilding the activities that make up our lives.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and the more specialized approach of Exposure and Response Prevention have been shown repeatedly to be the most effective treatment interventions for anxiety and related disorders, including OCD and phobias. CBT is the process of understanding the relationship between our thoughts, feelings and behaviors and how we can use changes in thoughts and behaviors to affect change in feelings.

My primary modality is restoration therapy. Restorative therapy looks at how we are responding to situations in the present in our thoughts, emotions, & actions. Then we consider where we first learned those responses and the beliefs behind them (our pain cycle). After identifying our pain cycles we develop and practice a peace cycle that brings more ease to our being in the world. I also bring to our sessions techniques from solutions based therapy, motivational interviewing and mindfulness.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the connection and intersection between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors/actions. Our thoughts and how we think about ourself, others, and situations has a huge impact on how we feel and respond. CBT can help to identify and change old storylines (i.e. I'm never good enough, the world is a dangerous place) to improve self-esteem and reduce anxiety.

Cognitive Based Therapy otherwise known as CBT, like all versions of cognitive based approaches, focuses on helping the client to become aware of their thoughts and feelings in order to understand how their thoughts influence their feelings in maladaptive or unhelpful ways. The goal of CBT is to change the patterns of thinking and behavior in order to change the way it makes the person feel.

Elizabeth Sokolowski, PhD (She/They)

Clinical Psychologist

PhD

I use CBT to help clients understand the relationships between their thoughts, emotions, and actions. This work begins with an intake to gain clarity of symptoms, diagnosis, impairments, and treatment goals. CBT helps to create change by treating the unhelpful maintenance factors (e.g., low motivation) through alternative thoughts or behaviors. When change is unhelpful, I help clients find balance through acceptance skills (e.g., mindfulness) and processing stressors.

Cory Anton

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help you identify the connection between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors to help you better challenge negative thought patterns and create healthier thoughts and actions to combat anxiety and depression.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a common type of talk therapy (psychotherapy). One works with a mental health counselor in a structured way, attending a limited number of sessions. CBT helps one become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking so they can view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way.

Thoughts, feelings and behaviors are inter-related, so altering one can help alleviate problems in another.

CBT is focused on helping clients deal with a very specific problem. In my experience, I have helped clients work through issues with their anxiety, anger, depression, emotional roadblocks relating to career transitions or relationship issues.

sandeep kumar

Licensed Professional Counselor

CBT focuses on inner thoughts that drive behaviors. The process involves uncovering thoughts, examining what motivations might inspire them, and questioning whether they are still relevant to the current situation. CBT seeks to then change these thoughts. I diverge from CBT in that I don’t ask my clients to directly change thoughts. I encourage clients accept how thoughts might have been helpful.

Chantal miniet (She/Her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

I use CBT from a trauma informed perspective. I prioritize safety, empowerment, and collaboration. I validate the client's experiences and reactions, emphasizing resilience and coping strategies. We work together to explore trauma-related thoughts and behaviors, without pathologizing the client. Techniques focus on building skills for managing distress and promoting self-compassion, while pacing therapy sensitively to avoid retraumatization.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the oldest and best research-supported modalities that we have, and has been adapted to a wide range of presenting issues, though it originated with depression. It's also the gold standard for therapy treating ADHD at present. CBT focuses on identifying the links between our thoughts, our emotions, and our behavior, as well as patterns in how those three interact that are causing harm in your life.

CBT is a popular evidence-based therapy that focuses on the relationship among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In this therapy, you will learn how to evaluate and challenge thoughts that give rise to negative feelings and behaviors. You will also learn how to change problematic behaviors by gradually exposing yourself to triggering situations while practicing new coping strategies.

Ryan Grassmann, M.A., LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy assists the client in helping to change unhelpful thoughts into thoughts that are more beneficial, and often more accurate!

CBT is a behavioral treatment that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior. CBT is grounded in the belief that it is a person’s perception of events, rather than the events themselves, that determines how he or she will feel and act in response. CBT will help to look at ideas and practices and make adjustments to fit the client’s lifestyle.

I've been a CBT therapist for 15 years. I believe we unintentionally create our own misery in the way we interpret the world in childhood.

Kris Cavanaugh LPC, CADCI

Cognitive Behavioral therapy is one of the best ways to address depression and anxiety symptoms. It helps look at and shift some of the thoughts that can negatively impact how you feel and act. Sometimes our perceptions and thoughts about events or people or even life become so automatic that we aren't even sure what we are responding to anymore.

Our thinking impacts everything! Our sense of self. How we relate to the world. What we allow, and what we believe we deserve. Much of what we've learned, and continue to repeat to ourselves, actually isn't true. We want to make our mind an ally, not an adversary. As we develop a healthier relationship with our own mind, our stress reduces, our self-esteem grows and life becomes easier.

Katie Clark, LMHC, LPC (she/her)

Cognitive-behavioral therapy is considered among the most rapid in terms of results obtained. What enables CBT to be briefer is its highly instructive nature and the fact that it makes use of homework assignments. CBT is time-limited in that we help clients understand at the very beginning of the therapy process that there will be a point when the formal therapy will end.

Michael Crockett, PsyD

Clinical Psychologist

CBT involves identifying and changing the maladaptive patterns in your thoughts and behaviors that are keeping problems stuck in place.

Dave Davis

Qualified Mental Health Professional

MA

I see CBT as offering a relatively simple conceptual model for understanding the way our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors all interrelate and maintain each other (for better or worse). It is also a method for starting to notice our habits of thought and behavior that we are largely unaware of. Once we develop some awareness of habitual and unhelpful ways we think, we can start to challenge these habits and develop more realistic and healthy ways of experiencing ourselves and the world.

Kellie Collins, MS, LPC

CBT provides excellent tools to deal with anxiety, depression, OCD, and other road blocks.

Rochelle Schwartz

What behaviors in your life are not serving you? What thoughts create those behaviors? What beliefs do you have about yourself that influence those thoughts? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy provides one of the most well-researched, evidence-based treatments for a host of issues ranging from anxiety and depression to sexual issues and provides a fantastic structure for uncovering core beliefs and challenging thoughts that create harmful patterns and tear down relationships.

Lilyan Smith-Moore, LPC

Our thoughts and behaviors can keep us trapped in cycles that prevent us from moving forward. I use CBT approaches to help clients recognize and change these cycles. I am also trained in trauma-focused CBT (TF-CBT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE). These are treatments that have some similarities to EMDR, and are equally as effective.

As a class of interventions, CBT has received more empirical support than any other type of intervention - and this is precisely why our practice has a strong emphasis on CBT.

My practice is based around the idea that as a person thinks, so they will act. With this in mind, a great deal of my intervention techniques are derived out of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

CBT utilizes your thoughts to manage feelings and behaviors. We work together through in person sessions, thought/challenge records, and actively challenging homework to understand and change feelings and behavior. I'm committed to as much of this journey as you are to allow emotions and behaviors to change.

CBT is one of the most common practiced and evidenced-based therapies among psychotherapies. Following my master's level training in social work I underwent another two years of supervision utilizing this treatment. This therapy is scientific and teaches skills that can be generalized across life situations. This therapy is very powerful to bring desired change in one’s life.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, LICSW, RN, CADC1

We are not our thoughts and feelings and yet we often function as if we believe we are. CBT helps create some objectivity about our thoughts and feelings, as well as increase our capacity to challenge and change them thereby improving our mood and beliefs about ourselves. I like using an integrative approach that often incorporates CBT skills.

Danette Gillespie-Otto

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or the relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviors, is my secondary practice modality. I have extensive training in this model.

CBT views our behavior as fundamentally influenced by our thoughts and emotions. CBT allows us to better understand these maladaptive or 'dysfunctional' thoughts and replace them with those that have a more positive influence over our behaviors. While we certainly cannot control everything and everyone around us, our thoughts and feelings are aspects of our lives that we can gain control over.
