At NY Mental Health Center, we proudly offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a cornerstone of our treatment approach—backed by science and delivered by experts. CBT is a structured, goal-oriented form of psychotherapy proven to help individuals change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors that contribute to psychological distress. Our team of highly experienced psychologists and psychiatrists leverage this evidence-based approach to help clients overcome a wide range of mental health challenges.
What Makes Our CBT Approach Different?
Our CBT sessions are tailored to the individual and designed with outcomes in mind. Unlike traditional talk therapy, CBT focuses on specific problems and measurable goals. At NY Mental Health Center, you’ll work collaboratively with your therapist to:
- Identify and challenge negative thought patterns.
- Understand how these thoughts influence behaviors and emotions.
- Develop new, healthier coping strategies.
- Practice these skills between sessions for real-world impact.
Our therapists will often assign “homework” to help you apply what you’ve learned outside of sessions—so that real change happens not just in therapy, but in your everyday life.
