Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

A practical approach that helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected. CBT can offer tools to change unhelpful patterns and build healthier ones — one small shift at a time.

Helping You Break Unhelpful Patterns and Build Better Ones

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective, evidence-based approach that helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a loop of negative thinking, CBT offers tools to shift those patterns and bring more balance into your daily life.

At Gathered Connections Counseling, we use CBT to support individuals facing challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and more. This structured, goal-oriented therapy is focused on the present—but it can also help you make peace with the past and reshape the way you see the future.

How CBT Works

CBT isn’t just about talking—it’s about learning. In our sessions, you’ll gain practical strategies to:

  • Recognize and challenge unhelpful thought patterns
  • Develop healthier ways to cope with stress
  • Build skills to regulate emotions and improve communication
  • Strengthen your ability to make intentional, values-based choices

You’ll walk away with tools you can use long after therapy ends.

Is CBT Right for You?

CBT is a great fit if you’re looking for a collaborative, structured approach to therapy. It’s especially effective if you want to:

  • Learn new ways to manage anxiety or depression
  • Heal from past experiences that still affect your day-to-day
  • Build confidence and self-awareness
  • Improve your relationships and decision-making

Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after time away, we’ll meet you where you are—with compassion, respect, and a plan tailored to your goals.
