Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach, Florida.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of therapy we offer at Mormindful Therapy & Psychiatry. CBT involves specific interventions focused on changing thought patterns in order to improve overall mood and behavior. With the use of workbook and writing exercises and in each session the patient learns to identify automatic negative thoughts, label them, challenge them, examine the evidence and finally modify distorted thoughts to be more realistic and helpful.

Something that sets CBT aside from general talk therapy is that each session has specific information that is taught and goals in terms of change so that at the end of each session you will be able to identify specifically what was worked on and have a way to measure the progress. This strategy helps transform time spent in therapy to be goal oriented rather than tangential discussion without direction or purpose.
