Cognitive-behavioral Therapy
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on understanding the relationships between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT is used to treat a wide range of mental health and physical health issues, such as anxiety, depression, substance abuse, eating disorders, physical pain, and more. It emphasizes the role of thinking in how we feel and what we do, and helps individuals to recognize how their thought patterns may be contributing to their experience of distress or poor functioning. It also helps people to develop new, more helpful ways of thinking and behaving. CBT has been found to be highly effective in treating many mental health conditions, and research supports its long-term effectiveness.
