What is the CBT Skills-Based Program
Our Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-based program is designed to support children, teens, and young adults in managing stress, anxiety, and behavioral challenges. Through this approach, participants learn valuable skills to identify and redirect unhelpful or negative thoughts, fostering more positive ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. We emphasize that while we can't always control what life throws at us, we can choose how we respond—an empowering mindset that can make a significant difference!
