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

Cognitive behavioral therapy is about understanding how thoughts influence behaviors. This type of approach assists clients in understanding and identifying their faulty thoughts and the influence they have on their daily lives and behaviors.

What tools do you teach in cognitive behavioral therapy?

The tools worked on during therapy are: learning the CBT model, examining thoughts and behaviors, understanding why thoughts matter, and psychoeducation.

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

Progress is made when clients note positive changes in their lives.

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

Clients should put therapy skills into practice in their lives to make progress towards their goals.

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

The first session is the intake session. They should prepare to answer questions so that the therapist can get the information the need about them.

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 Peachtree City, GA 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.

What Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?

Cognitive behavioral therapy is a practical and proactive psychotherapy that focuses on a client’s response to a particular psychological, social, emotional, or relational challenge. Instead of directly addressing the difficulty, CBT works on changing the client’s perception and reaction to the challenge.

Root Problems: Cognitive Distortions

Negative and untrue thoughts can plague anyone. Replacing these cognitive distortions with true, positive thoughts begins with identifying faulty thinking. Here are a few common cognitive distortions:

  • Polarized thinking: Viewing circumstances with an all-or-nothing mindset.
  • Blaming: Looking for fault in every circumstance, even when it’s unhelpful.
  • Catastrophizing: Anticipating the worst possible outcome.
  • Control fallacies: Either giving away control or taking too much control.
  • Filtering: Dismissing anything positive, viewing the world through a negative lens.
  • Overgeneralization: Drawing universal principles from a single event.
  • Emotional reasoning: Conflating internal feelings with external reality.
  • Fairness fallacy: Comparing lives to an arbitrary standard of fairness.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy at Thriveworks Peachtree City

If you’re ready to replace negative thinking with a more positive outlook, Thriveworks Peachtree City is here to help.

I have known Stephanie for over six years and worked side by side with her in a mental health center for part of that time. What comes across first and foremost is her caring and concern for her clients and her determination to see that their needs are met. She brings to her work a wide range of experience and training along with confidence that is reassuring and a comfort to those in distress. She can deal calmly with the most severe issues as well as with problems of daily living. In the time that I've known her, she has been licensed in three different states to practice in a variety of settings. If you come to her in a time of need, in a time of emotional upheaval or difficult questions, I don't think you will find a more competent or more caring therapist.
