At Karos Counseling, we specialize in helping teens and adults build mental resilience and find lasting relief from depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. Using TEAM-CBT, a powerful, evidence-based approach created by Dr. David Burns, we guide clients toward rapid, measurable, and compassionate change — so they can feel better, faster.


What Makes TEAM-CBT Different

Most people imagine therapy as a long, drawn-out process — months or even years of talking through pain without clear progress. TEAM-CBT changes that.
Developed by Dr. David Burns, author of Feeling Good and Feeling Great, TEAM-CBT blends scientific precision with deep human empathy.
It’s not just about talking; it’s about transformation.

TEAM stands for:

  • T = Testing – Every session begins with measuring how you feel, so progress is clear and tangible.
  • E = Empathy – Your therapist listens with warmth and understanding, not judgment or distance.
  • A = Assessment of Resistance – Instead of pushing you to “get better,” we explore why part of you might hesitate — and honor that resistance as a sign of wisdom and protection.
  • M = Methods – Over 100 proven techniques help you shift painful thoughts and emotions in ways that fit your unique situation.

How TEAM-CBT Helps You Heal

Many clients are surprised to find meaningful relief in just a few sessions. By combining data and empathy, TEAM-CBT helps you understand not only how you feel, but why you feel that way — and how to change it.

This method works especially well for:

  • Depression and hopelessness – rediscovering energy and purpose
  • Anxiety and overthinking – learning tools to calm racing thoughts
  • Chronic pain and fatigue – reconnecting mind and body for lasting relief

You’ll learn how to challenge negative thoughts effectively, feel emotions more fully without being overwhelmed, and develop tools you can use long after therapy ends.


A Compassionate, Measurable Approach

At Karos Counseling, we believe healing should be both heartfelt and trackable.
TEAM-CBT allows you and your therapist to see progress clearly — not as a vague sense of “better,” but through meaningful emotional change.
Our goal isn’t perfection; it’s confidence, peace, and the ability to thrive through life’s challenges.
