CBT-Informed Online Therapy for Stress and Relationships

Dr. Arthur Betancourt uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors.

This approach can be particularly helpful for problems such as worry, low mood, sleep and eating concerns, and interpersonal conflicts.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Betancourt works with each person to assess their needs, goals, and preferences, and then tailors methods that fit the individual. Together the client and therapist determine whether CBT-based strategies are the best fit or whether adjustments are needed to meet changing circumstances.

These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured, skills-focused therapy in a way that accommodates different lifestyles and access needs.
