Common approaches to Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

Hear from Jorge Wallace, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)

View Jorge Wallace's profile

What is your go-to approach for cognitive behavioral therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in cognitive behavioral therapy is assisting them in identifying what cognitive distortion they are engaged in that fuels negative thoughts.

What tools do you teach in cognitive behavioral therapy?

I teach cognitive challenging tools to help clients determine if the negative thoughts they are experiencing have enough evidence to be valid.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in cognitive behavioral therapy?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in cognitive behavioral therapy when they are able to consistently navigate and process negative emotions and feelings.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement cognitive behavioral therapy?

Clients can supplement their time in cognitive behavioral therapy with journaling.

What should someone do to prepare for starting cognitive behavioral therapy?

To prepare for their first cognitive behavioral therapy session, an individual can be prepared to tell their story.
