Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

 

CBT, or Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, is a talking therapy and has been proved to help treat a wide range of emotional and physical health conditions in adults, young people and children.

 

CBT looks at how we think about a situation and how this affects the way we act. In turn our actions can affect how we think and feel.

 

The therapist and client work together in changing the client’s behaviours, or their thinking patterns, or both of these.

There is a great deal of research evidence, reviewed by NICE  (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence ) to show that CBT works effectively in treating depression and anxiety, as well as many other mental health issues including those listed below :

 

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Stress
• Eating Disorders
• Drug and Alcohol abuse
• Addictions
• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
• Bereavement
• Assertiveness and Self Esteem
• Self Harm
• Anger Management
