CBT focuses on helping you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence the way you experience the world. It is grounded in the principle that the interpretations of events, rather than the events themselves, contribute to the difficulties that encourage you to seek therapy. Once we work to recognize these patterns we’ll develop practical tools to challenge and replace them with more balanced, realistic perspectives. CBT is highly goal-oriented and typically focuses on a hopeful future rather than dwelling extensively on past traumas. There is a plethora of evidence for CBT being effective for a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and general life stressors.
Solutions-Focused therapy is a future-oriented therapy approach that emphasizes your strengths and resources rather than focusing on your diagnosis or past. It operates on the belief that you already possess many of the skills necessary to create change but need help directing your attention towards practical solutions. By identifying the "exceptions"—times when your problem was less intense or absent—individuals we will work to uncover specific behaviors that are already working for you. We’ll work together to develop goals after visualizing a life where your problem is solved and it is a short-term therapy modality designed to produce rapid, measurable improvements in your life.
