TEAM stands for:
T = Testing: I accurately monitor how effective each session is and how you feel about each session, to make sure that you are getting the very best therapy and getting the results you want. I believe in keeping myself accountable to being the best therapist I can be for you.
E = Empathy: I believe it is critically important to connect deeply with each of my clients, and use effective and sensitively honed methods to do so.
A = Assessment of Resistance: Using powerful motivational tools based on 40 years of research, I honor your values, clarify your goals, and remove barriers to recovery, setting the stage for breakthroughs.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is much more than sitting and talking about whatever comes to mind during a session. CBT sessions are structured to ensure that the therapist and the person in treatment are focused on your goals of each session, which in turn ensures that each and every session is productive.
