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

My go-to approach for helping people in cognitive behavioral therapy is challenging internal thought processes as well as discussing the connections between thoughts, actions, and emotions. I enjoy practicing putting thoughts on trial, as it helps people find or disprove a thought with evidence rather than basing things on their feelings.

What tools do you teach in cognitive behavioral therapy?

I teach the following tools in cognitive behavioral therapy: putting thoughts on trial, which creates a list that proves the thought true or proves the thought false. I also teach the CBT triangle to help people better understand how to challenge their thoughts, actions, and feelings.

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

I know a client is making meaningful progress in cognitive behavioral therapy when they are able to recognize intrusive thoughts, and cognitive distortions, as well as start practicing ways of challenging them.

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

Clients can supplement their time in cognitive behavioral therapy by keeping a mood and thought journal.

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

To prepare for their first cognitive behavioral therapy session, a person can come in with an open mind and a willingness to change.

I am very happy to have worked with Amanda Bright. She always had a smile on and a positive attitude. She was great she with the clientele; she was encouraging and empathetic but also showed much discipline and great work ethic. She is very attentive and would make a great choice as a therapist.
