CBT Treatment with Our Expert Therapists
At Beck Institute, we are committed to providing modern CBT that focuses on helping clients experiencing a wide range of symptoms. Our therapists strive to foster highly supportive, compassionate, and collaborative relationships with clients and to tailor treatment to their individual difficulties and preferences. Our therapists work together with clients to identify their strengths, achieve important goals, and create positive and lasting changes in their thinking, behavior, and mood.
Beck Institute’s clinical team has been trained and supervised by Dr. Aaron T. Beck and Dr. Judith Beck. They provide therapy, write, and teach about the practice of CBT. They are internationally renowned and considered to be among the best CBT therapists in the US.
“CBT has always been the most critical piece of recovery from my episodes of depression and anxiety. My knowledge of basic CBT skills and more importantly, my application of those skills, has been the backbone of my recovery each and every time.”
Our therapists provide services in person at our clinic located in suburban Philadelphia, and also provide services via telehealth to clients living in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Washington, DC.
