CBT and DBT Online with a New Jersey Psychologist

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a structured approach that explores the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, panic symptoms, and stress by helping individuals identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping strategies.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. It can be particularly useful for managing impulsivity, intense emotions, anger, and relationship difficulties by teaching concrete tools for responding to stressful situations.
