CBT Q & A

What should I know about CBT?

You should know that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy, or talk therapy, that helps you identify and change negative thoughts and behaviors to improve your mental well-being. 

 

CBT is based on the idea that how you think and interpret situations affects your emotions and behavior, and that changing these negative thought patterns and actions improves your mental health and overall well-being. 

 

CBT is a short-term therapy that focuses on one problem at a time. It aims to help you manage your thoughts and behaviors to improve how you feel. 

Who can benefit from CBT?

Though CBT is frequently used for mental health conditions, it’s a form of therapy that benefits almost anyone struggling to achieve a goal or manage stress. The team at Spectrum Behavioral Health LLC may use CBT for:

 

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Phobias
  • Eating disorders
  • Addiction treatment
  • Stress management
  • Bipolar disorder
  • LGBTQ+ support
  • Women’s support

 

Mental health professionals also use CBT to treat medical conditions like insomnia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and migraines. 

What can I expect during CBT?

You can expect patient-centered care from the team at Spectrum Behavioral Health LLC. The specifics of your CBT depend on your needs and goals. Before starting any therapy, you meet with your clinician for an evaluation so they can gain an understanding of your concerns.

 

You meet regularly with your therapist for talk therapy. During your conversations, your therapist asks questions that help you gain insight into how you respond to challenging situations. 

 

Therapy also helps you identify negative thoughts and behaviors, and create strategies to improve how you think and behave. 

How long do I need CBT?

Though CBT is a short-term therapy, you may not see improvements right away. The length of your CBT depends on your needs and goals. Most people need 3-4 months of CBT until they reach a point where they can manage their mental well-being on their own.

 

Spectrum Behavioral Health LLC takes a holistic, integrative, and patient-centered approach, customizing therapy plans to help you heal, grow, and achieve your goals.
