At Catalyst Psychology, we specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a modern, proven, evidence-based approach to help you understand and overcome the thoughts and feelings that influence your behaviors. CBT can be thought of as a toolbox of rigorously researched tools that can be used in a precise, customized way to help folks overcome the challenges of the present, and increase success, meaning and enjoyment in the future.

CBT at Catalyst leads to greater knowledge of the brain, body and behavior for greater intention and control over responses, habits and emotions. As one client described it, “I’m not reactive anymore, now I’m responsive.”

What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a powerful psychotherapeutic treatment designed to address a wide range of mental health issues by focusing on two key components:

1. Cognitive Component: We help you identify and challenge distorted or unhelpful thought patterns, replacing them with more realistic and goal-oriented ones. Become aware of the thoughts keeping you stuck, and learn how to both change them in real-time and decrease frequency of unhelpful ones.

2. Behavioral Component: Our therapists work with you to change unhelpful behaviors and adopt new, healthy and goal-oriented habits. AtCatalyst, we know mood often follows action, so we help our clients increase the habits they want to see in their daily lives to feel less anxious, stress and feel more fulfilled.
