Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Transforming Thoughts and Behaviours for Positive Change
Introduction to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a widely practiced and evidence-based therapeutic approach that focuses on the connection between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Developed by Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis, CBT aims to identify and modify maladaptive thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to psychological distress. By challenging negative beliefs and learning new coping skills, clients can achieve lasting changes in their emotional well-being and functioning.
How Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Works
In CBT, therapists work collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge cognitive distortions, such as black-and-white thinking, catastrophizing, and personalization. Through structured exercises and homework assignments, clients learn to recognize and reframe unhelpful thoughts, replacing them with more balanced and realistic alternatives. Additionally, CBT incorporates behavioural techniques, such as exposure therapy and behavioural activation, to help clients confront fears, overcome avoidance behaviours, and develop healthier coping strategies.
