What is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?
CBT evaluates negative automatic thoughts and replaces them with accurate thinking. Research shows that CBT is the most effective treatment for depression, anxiety disorders and other behavioral health concerns.
What is Interpersonal Psychodynamic Therapy (IPT)?
IPT is a form of therapy which helps a person to identify, understand and resolve difficulties that may arise from past dysfunctional relationships, and that manifest in current interpersonal problems.
