Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I’ve been using CBT in my practice and I have found it to be extremely successful with my clients. CBT explores to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and how these were developed. I also address the cultural sensitivity within the context of CBT.
