Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a psychotherapy approach used to help people recognize, challenge and modify the negative thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to mental health issues. CBT has been found to be highly effective in treating depression, anxiety, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other forms of mental illness. By utilizing evidence-based techniques, CBT works to identify distorted or irrational thinking and behaviors, then developing and implementing strategies to modify unhealthy thoughts and behaviors. Through CBT, people learn new thought and behavior patterns that can then be applied to different contexts, even outside the therapy setting. As a result, CBT is a powerful and lasting treatment that can help people obtain lasting emotional and psychological well-being.
