Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a widely recognised and effective form of therapy that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.

CBT is a collaborative and goal-oriented approach that helps individuals understand and change unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour.
 
CBT can be used to address a variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), among others. By working with a CBT therapist, you can gain insight into your thoughts and beliefs, identify negative or distorted thinking patterns, and develop healthier ways of coping with life's challenges.
 
The underlying principle of CBT is that our thoughts and interpretations of events significantly influence our emotions and behaviours.
 
Through CBT, you will learn practical strategies and techniques to challenge and modify unhelpful thoughts, develop problem-solving skills, and implement behavioural changes that support your well-being.
 
CBT is a structured and time-limited therapy, typically consisting of a set number of sessions. It is a collaborative process between you and your therapist, where you actively participate in setting goals, tracking progress, and implementing the strategies discussed during therapy sessions. The skills and insights gained from CBT can have a long-lasting impact, equipping you with the tools to manage future challenges effectively.
