What does adult behavioral therapy include?
Adult behavioral therapists provide psychotherapeutic services to help individuals successfully cope with emotional, mental, social, and behavioral challenges faced throughout their adult years. While some adults may have seen a child therapists when they were younger, others face new challenges in adulthood that cause them to seek the help of a mental health professional for the first time.
Our mental health professionals follow this approach for providing professional behavioral therapy services to adults:
Assessment
A complete evaluation by our adult psychologists helps to identify psychological, behavioral, social, emotional, and cognitive challenges that are interfering with everyday living and overall quality of life.
Intervention
Once the challenge has been identified and understood, an appropriate treatment plan is created. Types of adult therapy interventions include evidence-based approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
Prevention
Our adult therapists encourage clients to take an active role in their treatment by learning to identify potential stressors and triggers and how to mitigate or prevent them.
Collaboration
Ideally, our mental health professionals can consult with a client’s other healthcare providers to develop and implement a holistic treatment plan for long-lasting positive results.
