Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on modifying dysfunctional emotions, behaviors, and thoughts by evaluating and changing negative or irrational beliefs. It rests on the idea that thoughts and perceptions influence behavior. CBT helps identify and change thought patterns that contribute to psychological distress.
The goal of CBT is to help you adapt and change your mindset and behaviors by reassessing distorted thought patterns. It is appropriate for people of all ages, including children, adolescents, and adults. Evidence has shown that CBT can address numerous conditions, such as major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and many others.
A typical course of CBT is around 5 to 20 sessions of about 50 minutes, lasting six months to one year or more. In the case of Brief Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (BCBT), therapy is condensed into a shorter time (2-3 months), making it a more accessible option for individuals who may not be able to commit to a longer course of therapy.
