What is the Vancouver CBT Centre?

We offer evidence-based psychological treatment and assessment for anxiety, depression, and related problems, as well as offer training in CBT to licensed mental health professionals.


What is CBT?


Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, or CBT, is an evidenced-based psychological therapy. With over 350 research studies investigating it, CBT has been found to be one of the most effective treatments for a number of problems, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and trauma.
CBT involves understanding the behaviours we engage in and the thoughts we have that contribute to feelings of distress, and maintain or worsen the problem areas in our lives.
With CBT, individuals learn new skills to better manage problematic situations. In short, CBT teaches you how to become your own therapist, and to develop a sense of control over anxiety and distress rather than feeling controlled by it.

Welcome to the Vancouver CBT Centre.
We are a group of psychologists and psychiatrists with extensive and specialized experience in evidence-based treatments, including cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT) and pharmacological (medication) treatment.
We are the former clinical team from the UBC Anxiety Disorders Clinic. We specialize in treating complex and severely disabling anxiety conditions, as well as conducting research that has assisted in better understanding and treating anxiety and related problems.
