PSYCHOTHERAPY
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a goal-oriented, active kind of psychotherapy with a proven effectiveness for treating a variety of problems, including mood- and anxiety disorders. The premise of CBT is that thoughts, feelings and behaviour interact and can become a vicious cycle that is difficult to break. In a CBT treatment the therapist and client work together to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours to promote change and wellbeing. A long term aim is to provide tools and skills that enable the client to tackle problems and control symptoms by harnessing their own resources.
Who is it for?
Adults and adolescents suffering from:
- Depression
- Anxiety disorders - e.g. panic disorder, social anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, excessive worry and health anxiety
- Specific phobias
- Low self esteem
