Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
teaching clients to be their own therapists
I believe in making sense of one’s problems and teaching skills that aim to change unhelpful cycles for the long term. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by changing the way you think and behave.
Unlike some other talking treatments, CBT deals with your current problems, rather than focusing on issues from your past. It looks for practical ways to improve your state of mind on a daily basis.
CBT is based on the concept that…
your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a vicious cycle.
CBT aims to help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts.
You’re shown how to change these negative patterns to improve the way you feel.
CBT is helpful for a wide range of problems including:
– Depression
– Anxiety
– Panic attacks
– OCD
– Poor self-esteem
– Relationship Problems
– Stress
– Eating disorders
– Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
