cbt therapy for anxiety

Anxiety

Are worries, fears, or panic attacks interfering with your daily life? When anxious, we spend much of our time and energy avoiding situations that produce anxiety. But CBT can help you identify and manage the thoughts contributing to your anxiety.

OCD

OCD Counseling

If you struggle with OCD, traditional talk therapy is not enough. Using evidence-based methods such as CBT and Exposure Response Prevention, our therapists are committed to providing you with the tools to reduce the frequency and intensity of OCD symptoms.

cbt therapy for depression

Depression

When feeling discouraged, hopeless, or irritable, it helps to talk through emotions. You don’t have to struggle with depression or low self-esteem alone. With counseling, you can boost your mood and regain motivation.

stress

Stress

Stress doesn’t have to take the enjoyment out of your life. We know that stress can be overwhelming but with the right tools, you can improve your peace of mind. Our therapists are here to help you reduce stress levels, cope healthily, and enhance your sense of well-being.
