Sabelle Mbye NP

The first session, as with all Thriveworks therapists, will involve talking through your needs and goals for therapy — whether those involve managing depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or another mental health challenge. This will enable you to receive the very best care, as a personalized treatment plan will then be developed for subsequent sessions. Thriveworks helps people live happier, more fulfilling lives. Clients are guided and supported as they work through their unique mental health challenges – and, along the way, shown the life-changing power of therapy.

I offer a variety of counseling approaches including CBT / Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems. As a young psychiatric mental health Nurse Practitioner, my duty is to increase access to mental health care and remove stigma connected to mental illness.

Sabelle's approach to therapy is deeply rooted in CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a form of psychological treatment that has been demonstrated to be effective for a range of problems including depression, anxiety disorders, alcohol and drug use problems, marital problems, eating disorders, and severe mental illness. Numerous research studies suggest that CBT leads to significant improvement in functioning and quality of life. In many studies, CBT has been demonstrated to be as effective as, or more effective than, other forms of psychological therapy or psychiatric medications. Life is full of ups and downs. However, our means of navigating through difficult times determine outcomes that could be negative or positive. Sabelle is confident that she has the capabilities to support and guide any individual through trying times. All you have to do is ask. Call and schedule an appointment with her today.
