Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT is one of the most researched and effective forms of psychotherapy for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and relationship difficulties. At its core, CBT helps people understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By identifying unhelpful or distorted thought patterns and replacing them with more balanced, realistic perspectives, clients begin to experience positive changes in mood and behavior.
CBT is practical, goal-oriented, and focused on the present. It teaches skills for managing negative thinking, reducing avoidance, and increasing healthy coping behaviors. Clients often learn to track their thoughts, practice new ways of responding to stress, and build confidence in handling challenges that once felt overwhelming. The approach empowers individuals to become their own therapists over time—recognizing triggers, reframing thoughts, and building resilience long after therapy ends.
At Pulianda & Brock Psychology Associates, our team is highly trained in CBT and integrates it with other evidence-based methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, and mindfulness-based interventions. We tailor treatment to each client’s needs, offering structure and compassion in equal measure. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, or intrusive thoughts, we help you develop insight, strengthen coping tools, and create meaningful change that lasts.
