Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a proven talk therapy that helps children understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is particularly effective for conditions like anxiety, depression, and OCD, and can benefit children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who experience co-occurring mental health challenges.

Our therapists use techniques such as:

  • Restructuring: Helping children reframe negative thoughts into positive, productive ones (e.g., turning “I’m a failure” into “I can improve with practice”).

  • Exposure: Gradually introducing children to anxiety triggers in a safe, controlled way to build coping skills.

  • Role-Playing: Practicing new ways to handle challenging situations, such as responding to a bully.

CBT is typically long-term sessions daily, and equips children with lifelong coping strategies.

What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?

CBT is a structured, evidence-based talk therapy that helps children understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. By identifying and reframing negative thought patterns, CBT equips kids with tools to manage emotions and cope with challenges. It’s typically short-term and goal-oriented, making it effective for various conditions.

Benefits for Children with Autism, ADHD, and Learning Disabilities

• Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD):

    • How it Helps: CBT addresses co-occurring mental health issues like anxiety or depression, common in children with ASD. It teaches coping strategies, such as restructuring thoughts (e.g., changing “I’ll never fit in” to “I can learn to make friends”) and managing sensory-related anxiety through exposure techniques.

    • Benefits: Reduces anxiety, improves emotional regulation, and enhances social skills, helping children navigate social situations more confidently. For example, role-playing can prepare kids for peer interactions.

• Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD):

    • How it Helps: CBT helps children with ADHD manage impulsivity and emotional outbursts by teaching self-control strategies, such as mindfulness and problem-solving. It also addresses negative self-perceptions (e.g., “I’m always messing up”).

    • Benefits: Improves focus, reduces frustration, and builds confidence. Techniques like journaling or relaxation exercises help kids pause and think before acting, enhancing school and home behavior.

• Learning Disabilities:

    • How it Helps: CBT tackles emotional challenges like low self-esteem or anxiety caused by academic struggles. It teaches kids to reframe thoughts about failure (e.g., “I’m not stupid, I just need more practice”) and develop resilience.

    • Benefits: Boosts confidence, reduces school-related stress, and improves motivation. It also helps children advocate for their needs, such as requesting accommodations.
