Common approaches to Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

Victoria Baca Villagomez

Hear from Victoria Baca Villagomez, Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC)

View Victoria Baca Villagomez's profile

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

At the beginning of treatment, the CBT therapist takes an “educator role” to help clients understand and learn more about their condition (psychoeducation). Clients benefit from psychoeducation because they gain more insight and awareness about their problems and they can also feel validated “ I am not the only person going through this”

What tools do you teach in cognitive behavioral therapy?

Identifying and challenging cognitive distortions, decatastrophizing, exposure, progressive muscle relaxation.

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

I know a client is making progress when we see a decrease of frequency and intensity on the initial symptoms.

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

Every client is different, some people might need to supplement therapy with medication, other people might need a self help group, other people might need to do life styles changes.

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

Clients need to be ready with pen and paper because these approaches are skills-based, this means that clients must practice outside of treatment the tools learned.

I recently switched from "Doctors On Demand" to "Thriveworks." I am seeing both a psychiatrist and a talk therapist. Both have thus far been exceptional. My psychiatrist is thorough in evaluating how medications are effecting me and advising possible alternatives if we need to reconsider a course of action. I appreciate his holistic approach to my treatment, probing how diet and other lifestyle choices may impact my emotional well being. My talk therapist listens carefully to me, shares a central theme that emerges from our session and recommends exercises that help delve deeper into issues that impact my ability to cope and thrive. I amvery happy with their service. Thank you.

Pedro is an excellent clinician who's primary concern is his clients wellbeing. He goes above and beyond to provide the best clinical care for his patients, and creates an individualized treatment plan to help assist with their specific needs. The clinical world is far better off having someone like this practicing in the field.
