Understanding Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is designed to be a short-term, goal oriented treatment. Northampton’s Weaversville Counseling uses it to take a hands-on approach to guiding you through emotional issues. We’ll work together to change your attitudes and behaviors by focusing on why you hold the beliefs you do, and why you respond to them the way you do.

Once we’ve identified your core beliefs and the problem at hand, we’ll focus on changing your thoughts and behavior to result in more positive solutions. You’ll be equipped with the tools you need to take on any of your emotional triggers.

Why Choose a CBT Therapist?

Weaversville Counseling utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because it tends to be quickly effective and gives you a concrete timeline to work towards in your recovery process. Most emotional problems take no more than 10 months’ worth of sessions, and having a timeline and setting goals has been proven to help with successful and enduring patient recovery.

Our therapists work with you to understand the problems you’re facing and together we work on strategies for tackling them. You’ll have a set of responses and principles to draw upon in any trigger situations and be able to slowly retrain your way of thinking to place emphasis on the important things in life.
