CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST
CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST
Dr. Carrie Holl specializes in Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT). Cognitive-Behavior Therapy is
a skill-building approach which teaches people how to respond differently to stress, mood
symptoms, and life events such that: distress is reduced, and effective coping is enhanced. The
approach is active, collaborative, here and now focused, and dynamic. People are empowered to
develop a skill-set to use during active treatment, and later in daily life.
Research demonstrates that CBT not only can significantly reduce current symptoms, but also has
been credited with lasting, positive effects and preventative components.
The CBT process includes: education, data collection on the nature of the symptoms, reading, and
skill-building assignments (both in session and between visits). Family and other significant
support systems may also be incorporated into the process, if appropriate.
If a strict CBT approach is not warranted, some of these skills can also be introduced within the
context of supportive counseling.
