Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

GF-CBT focuses on teaching emotional self-regulation, information processing, decision making strategies,and logical thinking skills. The program is comprised of three parts: 1) Group sessions in which adolescents receive social support from peers who have had similar experiences and learn CBT skills, 2) Family group sessions in which family members learn more about adolescents' experiences and learn CBT skills so that they can encourage and reinforce these skills at home, and 3) Individual sessions in which adolescents can apply CBT skills to their own lives and work toward personal goals. Group sessions are taught with Powerpoint slides and with an accompanying workbook.
