It's essential to have a therapist who understands the developmental stages and specific concerns of young clients, and we're dedicated to providing this support.

Is CBT a good fit for my specific mental health concern?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a versatile and evidence-based approach that has been shown to be effective for a wide range of mental health concerns. It can address issues such as anxiety disorders, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and more. The effectiveness of CBT lies in its focus on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors, replacing them with healthier alternatives. This approach can be adapted to suit the unique needs and challenges of each individual. During your initial assessment with our therapists, we will evaluate your specific mental health concerns and create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your needs and goals.

How long does a typical CBT session last, and how often do I need to attend sessions?

A standard CBT session typically lasts around 45 minutes. The frequency of sessions can vary depending on individual needs and treatment goals. Most of our clients start off with weekly sessions and drop down to every other week for maintenance sessions. While some clients may benefit from weekly sessions, others may find bi-weekly or a different schedule more suitable. The frequency will be discussed and determined in collaboration with your therapist to ensure that it meets your specific requirements and availability.

Can I combine CBT with other forms of therapy or treatment methods?

CBT can certainly be used in conjunction with other forms of therapy or treatment methods, and it is often integrated into comprehensive mental health plans. The decision to combine CBT with other therapies or treatments will depend on your specific needs and the recommendations of your therapist. In some cases, a combination of therapies can provide a more holistic and effective approach to addressing complex mental health issues. Your CBT therapist will collaborate with you to determine the most suitable approach for your unique situation.
