ADVANCED COGNITIVE BEHAVIOR THERAPY​
Advanced Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) is an effective form of treatment for a variety of psychological problems including addictive behavior, ADHD, anger, anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, oppositional behavior, relationship problems, and school refusal.

GROUP THERAPY
In these groups, a clinician guides the members to shape new adaptive behaviors. Groups are often helpful, in that they provide immediate feedback within a safe, yet real world setting. We offer groups for different ages as well as for different needs (e.g., Kids with ADHD, Preteen Girls). ​

INDIVIDUALIZED BEHAVIOR PLANS
Behavior plans are created in collaboration with the family to target specific behaviors for change. These plans are excellent tools for problems such as school refusal, oppositional behavior, executive functioning problems with children who have ADHD, repetitive hair pulling, and addictive patterns of behavior.

BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENTS
We conduct a variety of brief assessments (e.g., classroom or home observations, adult reports, self-report measures) to assess whether or not specific behaviors or thoughts are a clinically significant problem. If the data suggest that the behaviors or thoughts are problematic, we then use the findings to identify the likely cause of the difficulty. By completion of a careful task analysis, we develop of strategies to eliminate or reduce maladaptive behaviors and replace them with adaptive behaviors.
