Approaches we use
Cognitive behavioral therapy
CBT helps identify specific challenges in your thought patterns and develop skills to respond to them more effectively. This is one of the most common and effective forms of talk therapy.
Dialectical behavioral therapy
DBT focuses on self acceptance and understanding how two ideas that seem opposite can be true at the same time. It’s based on CBT and adapted for those with bipolar disorder, eating disorders, borderline personality disorder, suicidal ideation, and addiction.
Eye movement desensitization + reprocessing
EMDR is trauma-focused CBT that can help reduce the power of traumatic memories. A trained therapist guides you through thinking about a memory while moving your eyes back and forth to help your brain process them so they become less painful.

Success stories
Working with Dr. CJ is a joy. She has given me some life lessons that have worked better than any Elderly advice. I chose her because of the hobbies and interests that I have, so it’s easier to relate and understand my concerns and she gets it. There’s a level of connect that makes our discussions understandable and easier to accept and adapt to. I have recommended her to a few of my friends who are looking for therapy.

This is my first week using Cerebral but off the bat it has been such an easy process than local, in person providers. I’ve spent months trying to find accessible therapy and prescribers for my medication and it’s usually way out of budget or bad customer service. My provider was able to help me with my medication within our 30 min call. She was great and I just feel super grateful I found this app.

I honestly wish I knew about Cerebral sooner! It has been a wonderful experience. I feel so much better. They answer my questions in a timely manner. Always friendly and empathetic.
