Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of therapy that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to psychological distress. CBT is based on the idea that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected and that changing one can lead to changes in others. In CBT, the therapist works with the individual to identify negative thought patterns contributing to their distress.

 

The therapist then helps the individual to challenge and reframe these thoughts more positively and constructively. CBT also involves behavioral techniques, such as exposure therapy and behavioral activation, to help individuals change unhelpful behaviors and develop more positive behaviors.
