My go-to approach for helping people in CBT is beginning with psychoeducation regarding the CBT triangle. I find the best benefit in beginning here (with building rapport) because the client will be able to build each session from this point. Beginning here is a building block.
I teach the following tools in CBT therapy:
I know a client is making meaningful progress when they begin to identify maladaptive beliefs and behaviors while beginning to restructure their feelings.
Clients can supplement their time in CBT by engaging in and applying what strategies they've learned in therapy independent of the therapy setting.
To prepare for their first cognitive behavioral therapy session, an individual can identify what they need from the therapist, what challenges they are facing (such as anxiety), and remain open to the process. Restructuring is not an overnight process.
At Thriveworks, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and evidence-based form of psychotherapy or talk therapy. It focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors that can contribute to various mental health issues or challenges that people are struggling with.
Cognitive behavioral therapists specialize in Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and can help you to identify and comprehend your thought patterns, which often encompass automatic negative thoughts, cognitive distortions, and self-defeating beliefs. Once these negative thought patterns are pinpointed, cognitive behavioral therapists aim to challenge and replace them with the objective of fostering more constructive and logical thinking. In addition, these therapists place significant emphasis on implementing positive behavioral changes based on the newly established, healthier thought patterns.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is particularly effective for addressing conditions like anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. It focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors, making it well-suited for issues related to distorted thinking and emotional regulation.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
The success rate of CBT varies depending on the intentions of the client and their condition(s).
The selection between cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is based on an individual’s unique needs and challenges. CBT is commonly chosen for addressing conditions such as anxiety and depression, whereas DBT is especially beneficial for individuals dealing with borderline personality disorder, emotional regulation issues, and difficulties in interpersonal relationships.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with our Thriveworks therapists in Lynchburg, VA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Generally, CBT is considered a short-term therapy, typically lasting for about 12 to 20 weekly sessions. In some cases, it might extend to around 16 to 20 sessions for more complex issues.
CBT is a therapeutic model that has been proven to help a variety of people facing a wide range of difficulties. Clinic research has shown that clients participating in CBT can sustain long-term and substantial changes because they focus upon what they can control within their lives: their own thoughts. Even when clients struggle with serious mental health problems such as anxiety and depression, many clients experienced measurable relief comparable to that of medication. CBT has been used as a treatment for…
Thriveworks Lynchburg utilizes CBT with many clients because we have seen how effectively it can change someone’s life. Just as negative thinking can leave people hopeless and stuck, positive thinking can give them motivation to overcome even the biggest challenges they face.
Negative thinking can cause big problems, but it is unfortunately a common phenomenon. Often, the first step in changing one’s thought patterns is recognizing them for what they are. Here are examples of a few of the most common cognitive distortion. Do you recognize any?
If it is time for you to confront cognitive distortions that have been holding you back, know that Thriveworks Lynchburg has appointments available. When you contact our office, you may be meeting with your therapist the following week. A scheduling specialist answers our phone—not an automated teller or a voicemail. Weekend and evening appointments are available, and we accept most forms of insurance.
