Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used and evidence-based therapeutic approach that focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT is based on the premise that our thoughts and beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world can influence our emotions and behaviors. By identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors, CBT aims to help individuals overcome various emotional and psychological issues. Key components and principles of CBT include:

• Identification of cognitive distortions
• Behavioural activation and experiments
• Collaborative goal-setting
• Enhanced skill-building
• Homework assignments
• Exposure therapy
