We all have thoughts and beliefs that aren’t healthy for us. Sometimes, our feelings and behaviors cause us problems at home and at work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is based on the concept that our thoughts cause our feelings and behaviors, not other people or events in our lives. Since we control our thoughts, we can change them and feel better, even if the situation does not change.

In counseling, you learn to identify your unhealthy thoughts and beliefs and to replace them with healthy thoughts.

Many of us feel anxious or depressed at times. If you have these feelings and they interfere with your work or home life, counseling can help you learn to understand the causes of uncomfortable feelings and learn coping skills for meeting daily life challenges.

In counseling, you can learn skills to help you improve relationships with loved ones. You can learn how to deal with critical people.  You can learn how to really listen and how communicate effectively so that your true message is heard.
