I use a variety of therapeutic approaches, but I frequently integrate CBT in my practice—not only because it's evidence-based, but also because I find it can boost a client's confidence and build momentum toward future goals. CBT tends to be a shorter-term approach (often 8-20 sessions) with frequent check-ins along the way.
