Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely practiced, evidence-based form of psychotherapy that focuses on identifying, understanding, and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. It is based on the fundamental principle that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected, and that modifying distorted thinking can lead to improvements in emotional regulation and behavior. Originally developed by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, CBT has since evolved into a versatile and structured approach that has been proven effective for a wide range of psychological conditions, including depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and eating disorders. CBT is typically a short-term, goal-oriented treatment, usually lasting between 6 to 20 sessions, depending on the individual’s condition and therapeutic goals. The therapy process is highly collaborative, involving active participation from both the therapist and the patient. One of the key strengths of CBT lies in its structured format. Therapy sessions often include setting an agenda, reviewing homework assignments, teaching specific cognitive or behavioral skills, and practicing them both in-session and outside of therapy.
