Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an approach used by many therapists and psychologists to help promote quick and positive changes in people experiencing difficulties. CBT can help you to change how you think ('Cognitive') and what you do ('Behaviour'). These changes can help you to feel better. CBT focuses on the 'here and now' problems and difficulties you may be experiencing, instead of looking at the causes of your distress or symptoms in the past. CBT is known to be effective for the following issues: Anxiety Depression Panic Agoraphobia and other phobias Social phobia Bulimia Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Post traumatic stress disorder Schizophrenia
