Evidence based mental health treatment
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective, evidence-based psychological treatment that helps individuals address and manage dysfunctional emotions, behaviors, and thoughts through a goal-oriented, systematic process.
CBT is a form of psychotherapy that involves identifying and restructuring negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to harmful emotions and behaviors. This approach is grounded in the understanding that our thoughts influence our feelings and actions, and that by changing these thoughts, we can profoundly improve our emotional well-being and behavioral responses.
CBT sessions at St. Mary’s Wellness Center typically last between 45 to 60 minutes.

CBT is suitable for a wide range of emotional and psychological issues. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, stress, or other mental health issues and are looking for a structured, goal-oriented therapy that provides clear tools and strategies, CBT might be right for you.
It’s important to discuss any concerns with your therapist, who can adjust your treatment plan as needed. Sometimes, therapy goals or methods may need to be revised based on your progress or feedback.
