Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a talking therapy. Talking therapies are also known as psychotherapies.
CBT helps you to learn more helpful ways of thinking and reacting in everyday situations. Changing the way you think, and what you do, can help you to feel better.
Unlike some other talking therapies, CBT focuses on your current challenges rather than on your past experiences. It aims to improve your state of mind by teaching you to spot the links between your thoughts, actions and feelings.
When doing CBT, you will work with your therapist to find new ways of dealing with problems, and set goals for what you want to change. When CBT is successful it can help you to feel more in control of your life.
CBT is useful for treating:
-
Depression
-
Social Anxiety
-
OCD
-
Health anxiety
-
Generalised anxiety disorder
-
Trauma and PTSD.
