CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely recognized and effective evidence-based treatment for various mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), addiction, and more. CBT focuses on identifying and addressing negative thought patterns and self-defeating behaviors that may arise from intense emotions such as sadness, anger, loneliness, hopelessness, anxiety, fear, obsessions, compulsions, and self-harm ideation. By working with a therapist, individuals can learn how to manage their emotions, cope with grief, overcome emotional trauma, and navigate challenging situations. CBT can be a valuable tool in helping individuals achieve better mental health and overall well-being.
“CBT is one of the most researched treatment protocols for depression and anxiety. For decades, studies have confirmed that CBT is just as effective as medication management for these concerns yet provides faster relief and less recurrence of symptoms when compared to medication alone.”
