What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based therapy that helps people understand the relationships among their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and identify and change patterns of thoughts and behaviors that may not be helpful. CBT is the most scientifically supported approach for treating a wide range of psychological concerns, and its effectiveness has been demonstrated in over 2,000 research studies.

CBT is an efficient, solution-focused therapy that helps people to quickly achieve desired changes and live more satisfying lives. As the name implies, CBT addresses both cognitions/thoughts (by changing unhelpful thinking patterns) and behaviors (by increasing actions that improve well-being).
