Another approach emphasizes building coping skills and behavior changes through repeated practice, which can help with addictions, compulsive behaviors, and daily stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made.
