Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly structured, evidence-based approach that addresses the relationship between a person's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. At its core, CBT is based on the principle that psychological distress is often maintained by maladaptive cognitive patterns—essentially, "faulty" ways of thinking. The intervention focuses on helping clients identify these distortions, challenge their accuracy, and replace them with more functional, reality-based beliefs.
