Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is an evidence-based program that combines the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with mindfulness practices to help people better understand and manage their thoughts and emotions. MBCT teaches practical skills for recognizing unhelpful thinking patterns, staying present in the moment, and responding to life’s challenges with greater clarity and calm. Originally developed to help prevent relapse in depression, MBCT has also been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional reactivity while improving overall well-being. Through guided meditation, gentle movement, and reflective exercises, participants learn to cultivate awareness, self-compassion, and resilience in everyday life.

MBCT was created by Zindel Segal, Mark Willaims, and John Teasdale. Heather trained to teach this program through Brown University and Zindel Segal. This is a therapeutic group. However, at this point insurance does not cover this specific group treatment.
