This form of therapeutic treatment was originally developed as an alternative to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for those who are at high risk of becoming suicidal. Since then, DBT has become a common form of therapy used to treat several conditions, including depression.

Cognitive behavior therapy has been used for decades to treat a wide range of psychological issues, including depression, eating disorders, addiction and personality disorders. CBT involves the evaluation of thoughts, feelings and behaviors and the relationship between them. By looking for and identifying negative behaviors, CBT lets those with mental health issues modify thinking patterns to improve coping.
You should expect our Minnetonka CBT therapsits to be problem-focused and goal-driven. Here are some of the mental health issues helped at Choices Psychotherapy.
Regardless of which mental issues you are addressing, CBT‘s main goal is helping clients recognize negative feelings and behaviors and replace them with positive ones. Rather than focusing on interpersonal relationships or problematic situations in the client’s life, the CBT approach concentrates on analyzing emotions and adopting effective ways to handle negative ones in order to treat psychological issues. CBT therapists will more often than not assign “homework” for clients. This may include writing down negative or positive thoughts throughout the day to determine which negative thoughts lead to self-destructive actions.
At Choices, clients who choose CBT therapy work closely with a therapist who will help them recognize harmful thought patterns causing harmful consequences and get them on positive life path
