Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a directive and educational approach to therapy that targets behavioral change by addressing the thought(s) that drive the behavior. The process is goal-oriented and time-limited.  Homework is a cornerstone to effective CBT.  Therapeutic confrontation can be used to increase a client’s awareness of incongruences between thoughts and behaviors.
