Cognitive Behavioral Therapy at Adelson Mental Health in Texas
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective psychotherapy for various mental health conditions like anxiety, panic, depression, addiction, and eating disorders. It can be used alone or in combination with other treatments, ultimately enhancing the quality of life for patients.
CBT sessions aim to shift behaviour from negative to positive. With your Adelson therapist, you'll tailor the treatment plan for your journey.
CBT unfolds in both personal and group therapy landscapes. The primary objective is empowering you to recognize negative thoughts or behaviour patterns and replace them with positive ones for a brighter, happier life.
At Adelson Behavioral & Mental Health Clinic, initial sessions focus on the genuine expression of feelings to identify the roots of negative thoughts and emotions. CBT uses a goal-oriented approach, incorporating homework, tasks, journaling, and engaging activities to reinforce progress made in therapy sessions.
In essence, CBT strives for these aims:
-
Spot the negative aspects in your life
-
Be mindful of your thoughts in those situations
-
Recognize negative thought patterns
-
Reshape negativity for a clearer approach
