Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Transform Negative Thought Patterns to Build a Healthier Mindset

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, goal-oriented psychotherapy that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It operates on the principle that unhelpful thought patterns often drive negative emotions and self-defeating behaviors. By identifying and addressing these thought patterns, CBT helps individuals develop healthier ways of thinking and responding to life’s challenges.

At Agua Dulce Treatment Center, CBT is a cornerstone of our therapeutic approach. Whether you’re struggling with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, or co-occurring disorders, CBT equips you with the tools to reframe negative thinking, improve emotional resilience, and create a more balanced, fulfilling life.
