WAIT! Are you swiping through therapists like you're on Tinder? Slow down a minute, and see if this sounds like you: you're a young adult (18-30ish) living on Colorado, Massachusetts, or Maine who is going through some major life changes. Maybe these changes are starting or finishing college, finding your first "big kid" job, or going through a relationship transition. Or, maybe things are stable, but still not what you want! You're feeling worried, anxious, or depressed. It's super hard, but you don't have to do it alone. If you're nodding your head or thinking "that's me!", we might be a good fit.

I am formally trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Hi there! My name is Aisha (She/her/hers). Although I believe we are all the experts of our individual lives, there are times when all of us could benefit from an objective space. I've supported those through the heaviness of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I use a eclectic approach to meet your individual needs and goals. I typically use a mixture of cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, dialectical behavioral, and person-centered therapies.

Most people manage their busy lives and the stress that goes along with it pretty well, but there are times when we all get overwhelmed…when someone you love dies, when the unexpected happens, when family, work, school or relationships cause stress and difficulty coping. It’s then that it can be helpful to have someone to talk to--a compassionate and knowledgeable professional to help you make some sense of things and restore balance to your life.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists

How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?

Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?

It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?

To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?

CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
