How does Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) work?

CBT is a systematic, collaborative method that encourages people to actively participate in their own mental health. It works particularly well for a variety of conditions, such as anxiety, depression, phobias, and illnesses linked to stress. Together, we can assist your patients in gaining insightful understanding and creating enduring plans for a better and more satisfying life.

I treat various patients, including ages 5 and up, and all socioeconomic ranges. I aim to provide my patients with whatever they need through our outpatient programs. I embrace a holistic approach to the care I provide to my patients.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works by helping clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. Through structured sessions, clients learn to recognize the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions, challenge and reframe negative beliefs, and engage in positive behaviors. CBT also involves setting measurable goals and developing practical skills for managing stress and emotions, ultimately empowering clients to take control of their mental health and improve their overall well-being. It is effective for various mental health issues, including depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, and OCD.

This therapist prefers this approach. People learn how to identify and skills that aid in changing destructive thought patterns that have a negative influence on behavior and emotions.

My counseling experience includes treating adolescents, adults, and couples. My practice is highly individualized to address common symptoms associated with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I treat my clients as unique individuals with their own distinctive concerns impacting their lives. I greatly honor the trust I am given by them to help them navigate difficult times and unexpected life changes. I believe the decision to start the journey towards healing and reconciliation demonstrates a great deal of courage and resolve. Together we can discern a path towards a more balanced and joyful life. Emotional/spiritual growth and symptom reduction are the primary focus of practice. I accomplish this by helping clients understand how their internal life is interacting with outside stressors causing discomfort and impeding growth. I also endeavor to help clients recognize destructive patterns in personal relationships that may be keeping them from further healing. In addition to private practice experience, I also have pastoral/spiritual counseling experience.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. By challenging unhelpful beliefs and developing healthier coping strategies, CBT can effectively reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. It is goal-oriented, practical, and focused on promoting positive thinking and behaviors.

I provide expert psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and psychosocial counseling for children, adults, and their families. I am deeply committed to helping individuals with mental illness and their families reach their full potential in the most peaceful, low-stress manner possible. As the mother of an adult who has struggled with mental illness since childhood, I understand firsthand the challenges that come with managing these conditions. My experience includes providing psychiatric care in Level 1 Trauma emergency settings, community mental health clinics, and private practice. This background allows me to deliver high-quality, compassionate, and affordable care. Most appointments can be scheduled within a week of reaching out, and, given current concerns related to COVID-19, I also offer telepsychiatry visits. I work with children and adolescents to address behavioral and emotional issues that impact family life and school performance. For adults, I assist with mood disorders, thought disorders, and cognitive impairments. Medication management is a key part of the treatment process, alongside effective therapy and reducing environmental stressors. I understand the stress and anxiety that come with finding and accessing high-quality psychiatric care. That’s why I prioritize timely appointments, usually within a week of contact, to ensure you or your loved ones receive the support you need as quickly as possible. *Specialties •Mental Health •Adult Psychiatry •Child Psychiatry *Conditions treated •Depression •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •PTSD •Mood disorders •Trauma •Panic attacks •Personality Disorders •Autism •Behavioral issues •Sleep problems •Anxiety disorders •Asperger's Syndrome •Bisexual •Emotional Disturbance •Family Conflict •Grief •Intellectual Disability •Lesbian •LGBTQ+ •Medication Management •Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) •Oppositional Defiance (ODD) •Parenting •Peer Relationships •Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum •School Issues •Insomnia •Stress •Suicidal Ideation •Thinking Disorders •Transgender •Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) *Practice description I am a doctorally prepared Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who provides telepsychiatric services for children and adults.

I have been using CBT for the entirety of my career in different settings. Having experience with REBT (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), and MBCT (Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy) has helped me focus on the various ways cognitive therapy can be used in the therapy setting and meet the various needs of my clients.

I have training in dialectical behavioral therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I use these approaches to help adults experiencing emotional, psychological, behavioral, career, and relationship issues. My gentle and introspective approach to therapy helps you gain an understanding of yourself and the connection between your thoughts and behavior. My prior experience in residential treatment facilities has helped me utilize a patient approach to my work in private practice. I believe focusing on taking life one step at a time and being mindful of how thoughts impact our behaviors and are vital in understanding ourselves. The first steps to wellness are an open mind and a desire to change!

I feel CBT is a great approach for a lot of people. Our thoughts can be confused with our reality. If we deeply believed our thoughts and not allowing other perspectives to exist, then we can trap ourselves into certain scenario and feel the pain. It sounds philosophical eventually!

With my art therapy specialty, attentive listening, and culturally sensitive approach, you can find ease in our therapy sessions. Regardless of your age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and background, I am here to support you to reach your goals. If you love talking, we can talk; if you don't, we can create art, and let the art talk for us.

CBT is pretty much a subtle bread and butter for me. It is hard to do therapy without parts of the technique. I would say I am moreso an integrative therapist. I mix and match parts of numerous modalities to try to get you better "faster"

My name is Dr. Bryant and I am so excited to meet ya! I treat people virtually in the state of California. I also offer both in person and virtual services in the state of Tennessee. I created As You Are Therapy because therapy can be terrifying! I developed my practice with that in mind- so I could be different. As You Are was created with autonomy in mind. Come sit on my couch (IRL or Virtually) and be as authentically you as you want (literally without judgement). I want you to walk in, feel welcomed, and leave feeling your best. My therapeutic approach matches your vibe and we will build a relationship where comfort and acceptance are priority. Healing is a progression and I cannot wait to see you, as you are!  

CBT is my favorite it allows me to assist the patient in realizing they have way more control than what they think, and that with continued work and practice using CBT can help them to change their thoughts, feelings and behaviors. If you can do this, then you can change your life.
