Lani says, "ReportRespond When I began Life Coaching with Dr. Dianne Ruth, I was struggling with depression, low self-esteem and daily stress. I also had difficulty relating with my spouse, and expressing my feelings with him. I lived each day with almost constant anxiety. Dr. Ruth used hypnotherapy with me to help me find the underlying causes of my low self-esteem and anxiety. And I learned self-hypnosis to create a more relaxed state within myself. She taught me to use the One-Step Reframe or "Giving it the Finger" to solve problems that were bothering me, which is surprisingly effective. Another of the tools she taught me was EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) or tapping. I have learned to use this technique to alter my emotional state and remove negative thoughts and feelings. This has allowed me to have more joy and peace. She taught me to love myself just as I am, and now I can share that love with my family and friends. I am grateful that I could learn from her through our weekly phone sessions, since we live across country from each other. If a personal crisis came up between sessions, she was always available, just a phone call away. I really appreciate her compassion and sincere willingness to help me. Dr. Ruth has been an important catalyst with my personal growth journey." Read more

Nick P. says, "I went to see Keith a couple years back for one on one services. He was very down to earth, which was unexpected in my mind for a therapist. He was open and honest, even sharing a little bit about himself before asking me about my life. I appreciated that he allowed me to open up at my own pace. He also worked with me when I lost my job and wasn't able to afford therapy any longer, letting me see him a couple more times until he was able to find another organization I could see for free. Please give him a shot, one of the best decisions I ever made. " Read more

What is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)?

Cognitive behavioral therapy is a popular form of therapy that focuses on identifying and changing thought patterns that have a negative influence on your behavior or emotions. CBT is a structured, goal-oriented treatment approach based on these core principles:

  • Our thoughts impact our feelings and behaviors.
  • Our deeply rooted core beliefs impact how we view ourselves, our environment, and our future.
  • Unhelpful thought patterns can contribute to mental health problems and negative behaviors.
  • Recognizing how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and changing how we think can improve our mental health and well-being.

What can cognitive behavioral therapy help with?

Cognitive behavioral therapy can help with a wide variety of concerns, including these and more:

  • Depression and mood changes

  • Anxiety or panic attacks
  • Chronic stress

  • Addiction and substance use
  • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  • Marriage and relationship problems
  • Grief and loss
  • Personality disorders

Does cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) work?

Cognitive behavioral therapy is one of the most successful treatment methods available. Many research studies have demonstrated CBT to be as effective as or more effective than other therapy methods and medications.

However, CBT works best for individuals who take an active role in their treatment and apply the skills and techniques learned in their therapy sessions to challenges they face in everyday life. It's also important to remember results take time, and though CBT can significantly improve your mental health, some issues could persist after therapy ends.

  • Confirm the therapist accepts your insurance or offers a sliding-scale rate.
  • Ask about telemedicine and virtual visit options.
  • Schedule an initial consultation to make sure you're happy with the therapist's communication style and empathy.

What questions should I ask cognitive behavioral therapists?

Ask these questions to help you find the best therapist for you:

  • How long have you been practicing?
  • What are your certifications?
  • What is your philosophy as a therapist?
  • Are you more directive or guiding in your sessions?
  • What does a typical therapy session look like?
  • How long will each session last?
  • Do you give homework or reading assignments?
  • How many sessions do you expect I'll need?
  • How do you determine success in therapy?
  • What is your success rate in treating past clients with this issue?

I saw Mr. Lyons to help with grief from losing my husband. I met with him for 3 sessions and was able to manage the anxiety and depression much better. He helped me to learn some mindfulness techniques that were simple to use. He also gave me some referrals to other services so I could have more support.
