Registration is ongoing for Cognitive & Behavioral Consultants of Westchester and Manhattan's SOCIAL —> BRIDGE social skills group (for ages 12-14).

Our SOCIAL —> BRIDGE group helps adolescents move from craving connection to creating authentic friendships - one intentional step at a time.

Friendship skills can be learned and practiced. Just start small: observe before joining, ask follow-up questions, look for shared interests, and remember that awkward moments can be repaired.

Meetings are weekly on Thursdays: 5:30-6:30pm (EST) - in person at our White Plains, NY office - with rolling attendance (participants can join any time after their initial session and orientation).

The ***de rates across the county are startlingly high, especially among minority groups. And they're growing.

September is ***deawarenessmonth. This startling picture is a wake up call that we are losing too many people to su***de. We need to do more to reduce su***de rates: more prevention, more intervention and more connecting ethnic and racial groups with the help that they need.

for adolescents is considered the only well-established treatment for reducing suicidal behavior among youth. DBT strategically blends behavior therapy (change orientation) with validation (acceptance orientation). This treatment approach teaches all of us that we are doing the best we can AND at the same time we need to learn alternative ways to manage our problems more effectively. Learning how to think and act dialectically helps individuals achieve a more balanced lifestyle which ultimately helps people move toward having a life that feels more meaningful and worth living.

Cognitive & Behavioral Consultants of Westchester and Manhattan specializes in DBT for all ages and is the only -Linehan Board Certified Program in New York State.

Registration is open for Cognitive & Behavioral Consultants of Westchester and Manhattan's Fall OCD Intensive program for adolescents!

In this four-day CBT program with a strong focus on intensive exposure and response prevention practice, adolescents who struggle with OCD will learn tools to manage OCD, face their fears, improve day-to-day functioning and accomplish their goals. Research shows that intensive CBT treatments lead to more powerful short term gains than weekly treatments, and that weekly treatments are necessary to build on and maintain these gains. Participants will engage in both group and individualized exposure and response prevention practice to maximize benefits. Given that intensive programs lead to rapid gains, this program is recommended as an intermittent booster and/or as a jump-start to ongoing individual treatment.

Anxiety is a reaction that protects us from danger. However, sometimes we feel anxious even when we are not in danger. For example, feeling anxious about going back to school might make you want to avoid peers, skip class, or stay home altogether. In such situations, facing what you fear or doing an "opposite action" may be the right thing to do do. Opposite action means noticing that urge and gently doing the opposite when the emotion doesn’t fit the situation.
For example, if you feel anxious about interacting with peers, instead of avoiding them by not going to school or isolating yourself, try approaching a peer and introducing yourself or asking a question. You don’t have to feel confident at first; sometimes taking a small step that is opposite of your urge can help your confidence grow!
