What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a short psychotherapy treatment method focused on modifying behaviors through skill-building, coping mechanisms, and thought challenges through talk therapy.

It is rooted in clinical research and is a widely renowned gold standard approach for a range of mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, OCD, ADD & ADHD, trauma and more.

By addressing unproductive internal working models through a process of cognitive restructuring and intervention, new schemas can be formed considering each aspect of the CBT triangle: cognition (thoughts), behaviors (habits), and emotions (feelings.

Shorter Duration of Treatment

Comparatively speaking, CBT is a time-efficient therapy that usually takes place over just 30-60 minutes per week over 12-16 weeks. It can be incredibly beneficial in a short amount of time!

Helps Treat Various Disorders

CBT is designed to treat various symptoms and disorders. Because of that, it is highly customizable to every patient’s individual needs and condition.

Restructures Negative Schemas

Cognitive restructuring is a foundational aspect to CBT. By identifying and rewriting negative thought patterns, emotional distress can be lessened.

Builds Coping Skills

Through CBT, patients work on practical coping skills, such as emotion regulation, which they may not have formed otherwise. This allows patients to respond to everyday challenges more effectively.

Reliable Results

CBT has consistently high success rates. It can be even more effective when paired with medication, if recommended to the patient by our psychotherapists.

Meet The Founder

Dr. Sultan, son of psychiatrist, is a dual board certified mental health physician who has made it his life’s mission to explore, learn and practice the many treatments for the mind and its troubles.

Dr. Sultan’s path has led him to extensive training in therapies ranging from meditation and mindfulness to practical cognitive behavioral therapy and deep psychodynamic therapy. As a physician, he has explored how classical and innovative medical treatments can foster healing of the mind as well as personal growth.

These extensive ranges of therapies can be effective for many individuals, however they often take years to get results and many individuals hit walls in their treatment—getting only limited benefits.

Dr. Sultan founded Integrative Psych to push past the barriers of traditional mental health treatment by using naturally derived compounds in conjunction with conventional treatments such as medications, lifestyle interventions and psychotherapy to heal the pain and struggles in our minds beyond what traditional mental health treatments can accomplish.
