FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

​

What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)? CBT is the most researched type of psychotherapy and has been shown to be effective for a wide variety of disorders. Through CBT you will explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The goal of treatment is to make changes in thinking (cognition) and actions (behavior).

​

What treatment do you offer for OCD? I provide exposure and response prevention (ERP) for OCD.

​

What happens in the first session? Your first session typically lasts 60 minutes and involves an evaluation to determine the extent and nature of your difficulties. During this first session we discuss current issues, as well your history (family, medical, social and mental health), reasons for starting therapy and goals for therapy. This helps me better understand you and determine the best way to help you. This evaluation period might last for 2 to 4 sessions depending on your needs. Once we formally start therapy we will come up with a list of mutually agreed upon goals. Follow-up sessions are 45 to 55 minutes depending on the type of treatment you are receiving. Treatment may be short or long term depending on your needs and goals.
