At Social Connection Counseling, we know how overwhelming unhelpful thoughts and behaviors can be. CBT offers a practical, solutions-focused approach to therapy—one that helps you identify patterns that hold you back and develop tools to feel more grounded, present, and aligned with your values.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a structured, goal-oriented type of counseling that addresses the interconnection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It focuses on working through current challenges rather than dwelling on the past, making it a powerful way to build skills for real-life situations. CBT encourages active participation through tools like thought logs, behavioral experiments, and skill-building homework because lasting change often happens outside the session.
When we work with cognitive behavioral therapy, sessions may include:
With consistent use of CBT skills, many people experience calmer mental chatter, emotional clarity, and increased confidence in navigating challenges. You may notice reduced anxiety, stronger emotional resilience, and a deeper ability to act with intention instead of reacting out of habit or fear.
While our practice is based in the West Loop, Social Connection Counseling supports clients across neighborhoods including River North, Streeterville, River West, Near West Side, Fulton Market District, Old Town, Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, and Lakeview. With virtual counseling, you can access professional care from anywhere in the state.
