What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is based on the understanding that correcting the way people think can lead to massive and beneficial changes in their state of mind and behavior. The premise is that our thoughts, feelings, and actions are all interconnected and can influence each other. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, you can learn to change the way you think about your problems and relationships, and over time this will affect the way you feel about them. Many people struggle with destructive thought processes such as overgeneralizing, magnifying negatives, minimizing positives, and catastrophizing. These destructive thought processes contribute to stress, anxiety, and depression, and learning to overcome them can help to improve your mental health and quality of life.

In a clinical psychology practice, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective treatment for depression, anxiety, and panic disorder, and is also effective in counseling related to ADHD and problems within a marriage.
