Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Baltimore MD

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) describes a general approach to therapy. It is a philosophy and a collection of techniques that help people effectively manage mental health issues. At its core, cognitive behavioral therapy believes that how we think and behave impacts our mental health. Therapy includes psychoeducation, changes to behavior, and learning to think in new and more flexible ways.

Here are a few examples of what CBT at Behavioral Health Direct looks like and how it might be different from other forms of therapy:

• CBT is mostly present-focused and less concerned with events in the past. What is happening in your life right now and how can we make things better?
• Therapy is active and collaborative. We will take a direct role in helping you improve your life. You’ll learn specific things to do and practice.
• We focus on educating and empowering clients to feel confident and understand themselves and mental health in a non judgmental way.

Life can get really tough and challenging at times. Cognitive behavioral therapists help people respond to difficult thoughts and symptoms differently and see genuine and lasting change.

Our CBT therapists are currently accepting new clients in our Baltimore office or via telehealth in Maryland. We’ve had the privilege of working with many people who have taken the first scary steps towards growth and seen the tremendous progress they’re capable of and we’re hopeful and confident that you can see improvement as well.
