CBT Therapy

Here at Strong Therapy and Community Support, we see Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the “detective work” of therapy. It’s based on the idea that your thoughts, feelings, and actions are all connected. Often, we get stuck in “thought traps” (like assuming the worst or being too hard on ourselves) that make us feel miserable.

With this therapeutic approach, you and your therapist track your “automatic thoughts” and test them against reality, with the end goal being to catch unhelpful patterns and swap them for more balanced, realistic ones. This approach works best for those struggling with anxiety, depression, and stress management.

You might like this approach if you’re thinking: “I feel bad because I’m thinking ‘I’m a failure.’ Is that actually true, or is my brain just being a bully?”
