At By Grace Counseling, therapy focuses on the immediate concerns while also looking for root causes. Therapies often include the following:

Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment which helps a person make needed changes in thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. It can help a person eliminate unhealthy coping.

Enhanced Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT-E) is an effective therapy to address issues with eating. The therapy is generally 20 sessions in length. It can lead to lasting change and freedom.

CBT is effective for a broad range of issues. It involves talking with a therapist to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and make needed changes. It is a highly effective treatment.

CBT-E is a CBT protocol specific for eating disorders. It is highly individualized treatment. It begins with assessment of the root causes. It involves identification of triggers, as well as of associated emotions and thoughts and stabilization of eating patterns.
