60 Min Individual Session
Service Description
As a trauma-trained cognitive behavioral therapist (MCBT) and a certified clinical hypnotherapist, I specialize in treating individuals 18 years and older with a wide range of conditions like depression, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anger disorders, and adult AD(H)D. My approach has been widely adopted and is described in the scientific journal "Cogent Psychology." I have simplified my process and made it accessible to the general public in my books “Wise Up, Change is Hard: 8 Science-Based Steps for Making it Stick” and “The Routine Practice Planner.” I also treat several addictions, including alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, narcotic/opioid, pornography, and sex addiction. His approach to addiction is based on the SMART Recovery Model. This model, which is also based on the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emphasizes 1) enhancing motivation, 2) refusing to act on urges to use, 3) managing life’s problems sensibly and effectively without substances, and (4) developing a positive, balanced, and healthy lifestyle. NOTE: If you complete your paperwork before your first session, this will allow us more time to systematically review your status, discuss a possible prognosis, and begin developing a mutually agreed-upon treatment plan. This is part of what the scientific literature refers to as evidence-based care.
Cancellation Policy
Because Dr. Cole is in a private, solo practice, he loses the full amount of the cost of your session if you decide to reschedule or cancel your appointment without giving us sufficient time to back-fill your scheduled appointment. Accordingly, we request a 24 hours notice for rescheduling or canceling an appointment. There is no charge for rescheduling or canceling an appointment prior to this 24-hour window of time. If you reschedule or cancel your session without a 24-hour notice we reserve the right to charge the credit card you have on file with our office the full amount of a clinic hour.
