Welcome
| Welcome to The Washington Center for Cognitive Therapy. We appreciate your interest. Please let us know how we can help you. | |
| For over 20 years, our primary mission has been to provide short-term cognitive therapy to people suffering from a variety of mood disorders. We offer supervision and training for students and mental health professionals interested in developing skills in cognitive therapy. We also incorporate other therapy approaches, such as schema-focused therapy and emotion-focused therapy, to enhance the effectiveness of treatment. The Center also conducts psychological evaluations for residents in the Washington, D.C. area who might have emotional, cognitive, or physical disabilities. | |

Cognitive therapy is active, directive, and focused on the present time. Client and therapist jointly identify problem areas and goals at the outset of treatment. We try to highlight the client’s thinking surrounding current difficulties and to efficiently teach techniques for change.
When we started, cognitive therapy was in an embryonic stage of development. We have kept up with the latest developments and integrated other proven treatment approaches along with it, for success with an even broader range of difficulties. Thanks to clinicians and researchers, cognitive therapy is now established as the most effective form of psychotherapeutic treatment for a wide range of difficulties.
Cognitive therapy continues to evolve in creative ways. We strive to bring clients the latest developments at the Washington Center for Cognitive Therapy.
