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

I help people understand that the bully in their brain is not in charge of their lives. I do this with humor and stories to help them relate to the idea that they are not their thoughts.

What tools do you teach in cognitive behavioral therapy?

I teach lots of exercises, stories, metaphors, and experiential exercises in the session.

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

Progress occurs when they start to notice how they can change their responses to situations using the tools they have been taught in the session.

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

Clients can review the information given to them in the sessions and practice the strategies.

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

There is no need to prepare for your first therapy session.

Starting Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

What is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)?

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.

What does a cognitive behavioral therapist do?

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.

What is CBT best for?

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.

How much does a CBT session cost?

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.

What is the success rate of CBT?

The success rate of CBT varies depending on the intentions of the client and their condition(s).

What is better: CBT or DBT?

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.

Is CBT conducted in person or online?

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with our Thriveworks therapists in Katy, TX is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How many sessions is CBT?

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.

Our therapists accept most major insurances. We accept 585+ insurance plans, and offer self-pay options, too.

What I appreciate most is the friendliness. The ability to have active listening skills and them both being humble, and as honest as they can be during the sessions. My psychiatrist and therapist gives good and advice and instructions to move forward. They don't treat me as if I'm a crazy person. They treat me as a normal human being. They both are fantastic at their job and I really appreciate all that they have done so far.

I was lucky to have found the right clinician for me. She is very professional in her practice, thoughtful, patient, insightful, kind. My therapist brings active listening to the highest level. Not only does she put her training to good use, she is also, herself, intuitive in nature. She makes you feel heard and understood. And....I am happier than I can ever remember being.
