Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy is highly effective for people experiencing stress, anxiety, pain, or depression. CBT explores how our cognitions, emotions and behaviours interact together and can be used to support people with a wide range of mental health concerns.
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy focuses on the following:
- Cognition: how we think
- Emotion: how we feel
- Behaviour: how we act as a result of the interaction of the above
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy can assist in the process of developing insight into how and why the interaction of our cognitions and behaviours can lead to us experiencing negative changes in mood, stress and energy levels.
It is important to understand this interaction as often the negative behaviours that result can reinforce unhelpful thinking and therefore maintain psychological distress.
