Our Approach:
The Center focuses on CBT, a problem-focused and evidence-based psychotherapy.
In CBT, your therapist will help you clarify your goals for therapy and collaboratively set an agenda for each therapy session. These features help to ensure steady progress toward your goals.
A strong therapeutic alliance is essential, as the therapist and client work on improving skills, solving problems, and building a more satisfying life. Many CBT techniques elicit strong emotions, making a trusting relationship an essential part of the therapy.
Finally, between-session challenges are an important part CBT. These tasks facilitate the transfer of the work in therapy to your day-to-day life.
Over more than two decades, we have acquired highly specialized training in CBT-related procedures and approaches.
We have received specialized training in exposure therapy, schema therapy, Gottman Couples Therapy, Maudsley Family-Based Treatment for adolescent eating disorders, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy.
