What is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy?

• Collaborative - The client and therapist work together to understand the problem, define goals and develop the best treatment plan.
• Active - During sessions as well as between sessions the client is practicing skills and for anxiety facing their fears and gaining mastery over them.
• Objective - Questionnaires are used on a regular basis to monitor improvement of symptoms.
• Effective - Clients usually experience meaningful lasting change in a relatively few number of sessions.

CBT is considered a brief treatment. For most specific problems, significant improvement can be seen between 12 and 22 sessions.
