Cognitive-behavioral Therapy
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy used to explain and treat mental health issues. It is based on the idea that our thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs influence our behavior and emotions. CBT helps individuals identify distorted thinking and unhelpful beliefs, and replace them with more positive and realistic ones. It can be used to treat various problems, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, substance abuse, eating disorders, and adjustment to disability. CBT has been shown to be an effective method of treatment for many mental health issues and is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.
