Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and change the thoughts that lead to unhelpful feelings and behaviors. In sessions this looks like identifying specific thinking patterns, testing new behaviors, and tracking small changes over time.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how early connections affect current trust and communication. This approach is useful when relationship issues, commitment concerns, or fatherhood matters come up in therapy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cory will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He will check in over time and adjust strategies based on what is helping and what needs more attention.
