Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and extensively researched form of psychotherapy that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Developed in the 1960s by Dr. Aaron T. Beck, CBT is based on the premise that our thoughts and beliefs significantly influence our feelings and actions.
CBT is a goal-oriented and practical approach that aims to help individuals identify and modify unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour. By targeting and challenging negative or distorted thinking patterns, CBT seeks to promote healthier thoughts and improve emotional well-being.
CBT is known for its effectiveness in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety disorders, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and eating disorders. It equips individuals with practical skills and strategies they can apply outside therapy sessions to manage their symptoms and cope with challenges.
One of the strengths of CBT is its evidence-based nature, with numerous scientific studies supporting its efficacy. CBT is typically a short-term therapy, focused on specific goals and providing individuals with practical tools they can continue to use even after therapy has ended.
