What is CBT Therapy?
CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
CBT is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviours.
CBT aims to help individuals identify negative thought patterns and replace them with more positive and helpful ones.
CBT also teaches practical skills and techniques to manage symptoms, such as relaxation techniques and problem-solving skills.
CBT typically involves weekly or biweekly sessions with a trained therapist and can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months.
Does CBT Therapy Work?
CBT is effective in treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Studies have shown that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions, with some research suggesting that it can be just as effective as medication.
CBT has also been found to have long-lasting effects, with many individuals experiencing improvements in their symptoms even after completing therapy.
