Cognitive Behavior Therapy is a goal-oriented form of therapy that commonly addresses depression, anxiety and OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). A therapist helps a person learn what behavior is holding them back, works with their client to identify negative thoughts and teaches them how to reframe them, so they have a better self-image and healthier relationships with friends and loved ones.

CBT focuses on problem-solving and clients create what’s called “thought records.” These worksheets help the person see how their mind is clouding their ability to view matters logically. When a person assumes that their loved one “hates them” for example, that falls into what is called a “cognitive distortion.”

Working with a CBT therapist helps a client to learn techniques that they can take away and use in everyday life. That’s why CBT is not a long-term treatment but instead takes place over a couple of months. After completing therapy, the person is equipped to manage their negative thoughts independently. They know how to notice them, analyze their validity, and reframe them from negative to a more balanced perspective.

If you’re struggling with chronic negative thinking, CBT can work for you. It's time to find a therapist trained in this type of therapy and begin to feel better now.

I learnt 2 things by clicking on this video. CBT is one of the newer ways to approach behavioral psychology. This was not around years ago but makes logical sense. Secondly men like to clamp their ballbag between 2 pieces of wood or plastic.

Thank you for sharing this helpful video - your explanation of CBT is great! Sometimes we really need a powerful therapy like CBT to help break the vicious cycle of negative thoughts/emotions/fear --> which then leads to stress and anxiety (and then just repeats). I like how it's a collaborative process between the therapist and myself. And I don't mind homework in this case - it's worth it to break the vicious cycle! thank you!
