What Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a structured, goal-oriented form of talk therapy that focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Unlike traditional therapy that may explore past events extensively, CBT emphasizes present-day patterns and equips you with concrete skills you can use immediately.
CBT is one of the most researched and effective treatments for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety disorders, depression, panic attacks, OCD, and stress management.
