How will a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Therapist Help Me?

  • Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is the first line of treatment that should be offered to you for anxiety.

  • CBT will teach you skills to think differently so that you can feel better and reduce feelings of anxiety.

  • CBT will also help you to change your behaviours. Often when we have anxiety, we want to avoid or try to protect ourselves (which helps in the short-term) but can make anxiety worse in the long-term. CBT will help you to break these habits that you have developed to protect yourself.

  • By changing your thinking and your behaviours, you can overcome your anxiety. Our anxiety therapist in Barrie can help you on this journey to wellness because we know how challenging it can be to do it alone.

What to Expect at Your First Therapy Session

  • When you meet with a therapist, your first session will typically involve discussing your history and symptoms related to your mental health.

  • Your therapist will ask you about your feelings, thoughts, and behaviours that are associated with your symptoms, as well as how it has impacted your life.

  • It's important to be open and honest during this initial evaluation to ensure that your therapist can diagnose your condition accurately and develop an effective and personalized treatment plan.

  • Your therapist may also provide you with information about anxiety or other mental health conditions (e.g. depression, OCD), and discuss different types of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).

  • Additionally, you may discuss any concerns or questions you have about the counselling process.

  • It's important to remember that the first session is just the beginning of your journey towards healing, and with commitment and time, you can overcome the effects of anxiety and other mental health conditions.
