What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, time-limited psychotherapy that aims to address negative patterns of thinking and behavior. According to the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP), “CBT is based on the concept that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, and that changing negative thought patterns can lead to changes in feelings and behaviors.”

This approach is widely used to treat a range of issues, including anxiety disorders, depression, and stress. CBT involves working collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts and beliefs, developing coping strategies, and encouraging the practice of new behaviors. By equipping individuals with practical tools and skills, CBT helps promote resilience and emotional well-being, empowering them to manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
