What is cognitive enhancement therapy?
Cognitive enhancement therapy (CET) is an individualized treatment program involving scientifically created exercises to treat a variety of mental health and developmental problems.
GT Healthcare is the only office in California offering the CET program. It’s a custom-designed treatment that targets several aspects of cognition (mental understanding) and brain function. In many ways, CET is like a gym for the brain.
Patients download an app to their smartphone that they can use anytime and anywhere. Your provider monitors and adjusts your carefully selected, customized treatment program weekly.
What does cognitive enhancement therapy involve?
To begin your CET program, you will be given access to download an intuitive mobile app compatible with your smartphone. The app allows you to access GT Healthcare’s computer-based exercises that increase your memory, learning ability, and attention span.
When you start your CET program, it is suggested that you devote around 10 minutes 3-5 times a week for optimal results. GT Healthcare’s providers often see results comparable to those achieved with medication in the first six weeks.
The CET program is a subscription-based service you can access for just $25 a week as part of your comprehensive treatment plan

What benefits does CET offer?
