Online Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in California
Learn practical tools to help you shift unhelpful thoughts, calm anxiety and improve day-to-day functioning.
OVERVIEW
What exactly is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective, research-backed approaches for anxiety, stress, depression and other mental health challenges.
The heart of CBT is simple: Our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are deeply connected.
When our negative thought patterns take over, they can leave us feeling anxious, stuck or overwhelmed.
CBT helps you identify these patterns, understand where they come from and learn how to shift them into something more supportive.
Instead of only looking at your past, CBT focuses on the present.
It gives you practical, evidence-based tools that you can use right away to improve your daily functioning and to ease the symptoms you are experiencing.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is designed to help you …

WHAT TO EXPECT
What actually happens during CBT?
-
We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy and set goals for what you’d like to change. Together, we’ll decide where to focus so you feel clear and supported.
-
You’ll learn how your thoughts, feelings and behaviors are connected. We’ll identify unhelpful patterns and begin practicing new, more supportive ways of thinking.
-
Each session introduces practical tools and coping skills that you can use in real life. Your “homework” will be to use these exercises and practices when necessary to help you figure out if they work for you.
-
Between sessions, you may use worksheets or mood-tracking exercises to notice shifts and measure change over time. This helps us track your progress and adjust your plan to make sure it’s working for you.
-
Over time, these small steps add up. You’ll begin to notice patterns, shift the way you think about challenges and gain practical skills that last long after therapy ends.
