Healthy Behaviors of Westchester is a private psychological practice for children and adults looking to reduce unhealthy behaviors through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Via CBT individuals are taught how to identify their unhealthy actions and thinking patterns and are instructed in how to replace these with healthier behaviors and thoughts. Some examples of unhealthy behaviors that are commonly treated in my practice are avoidance of uncomfortable situations, excessive anger outbursts, pre-postnatal depression/anxiety, obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, uncontrolled worry, overeating/unhealthy eating habits, and smoking cessation. Individuals learn how to cope in healthy, helpful ways to reach specific short-term and long-term goals.
