CBT Therapy for Families, Adults & Teens

If you’re reading this, you’re probably carrying something heavy. Maybe it’s your anxiety. Maybe you’re worried about your child. Maybe you’re a teen feeling stuck between wanting help and not wanting to talk about it.

Whatever brought you here, you’re in the right place — and we’re glad you found us.

At Gordon Therapy Group, we use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because it works. It’s practical, action-oriented, and grounded in research, but it’s also personal, flexible, and real. Therapy with us isn’t about endless talking with no end in sight. It’s about feeling differently, thinking differently, and living differently.

We work with adults, teens, kids, and families, building the kind of emotional resilience that can actually change one’s day-to-day life, not just how one talks about it.

Therapy for Adults

Being an adult is hard. CBT helps break stuck patterns that keep you spinning your wheels.

If you’re struggling, here’s what we can tackle together:

• Finding real ways to manage anxiety, stress, and overwhelm
• Getting unstuck from depressive spirals and emotional shutdowns
• Healing from trauma and regaining your sense of safety
• Building better habits to support your sleep, relationships, and career

No two adults walk into therapy needing the same thing, so we customize CBT tools to fit your life, your brain, and your goals.

Therapy for Kids

Kids aren’t just “small adults” — their worries, fears, and meltdowns are real (even when they don’t have the words to explain them). We work with kids ages 2 –12 who are struggling with anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and big feelings that are hard to manage.

In kid-friendly, creative sessions, we help with:

• Teaching children CBT-based skills to face fears and manage emotions
• Working with parents to build stronger connections and communication at home
• Supporting kids with selective mutism, school anxiety, behavior challenges, and more

When kids struggle, families struggle, too, so we often work with parents (through coaching, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, or plain old cheerleading) to create real change that sticks.

Therapy for Teens

Being a teenager in today’s world is no joke. Academic pressure, social stress, identity exploration, endless scrolling — it’s a lot. CBT gives teens the tools they need to build confidence, regulate emotions, and figure out who they are without drowning in self-doubt.

Here’s how we support teens:

• Helping manage social anxiety, school stress, and low self-esteem
• Teaching coping strategies for mood swings, anger, and sadness
• Creating a judgment-free space where they can talk, vent, and build trust

We don’t believe in cookie-cutter therapy. Every teen is different — so we meet them where they are, and walk with them from there.
