Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is one of the most established psychological therapies for emotional, psychological and psychiatric problems. Cognitive behaviour therapy can be used with individuals, families, or groups. It has been extensively researched by some of the foremost psychiatrists and psychologists throughout the world and has been scientifically shown to be very effective with a wide variety of problems.
CBT is a relatively short-term, focused approach to the treatment of emotional, behavioural and psychiatric problems. It is collaborative and individualised and helps individuals to identify problematic thoughts and behaviours and replace them with healthier skills and habits.
In very broad terms, CBT assists individuals to recognise and monitor emotional changes and the situations that trigger them or make them worse. Then, strategies are developed so that individuals can cope more effectively.
CBT is what is called an 'evidence based therapy'. Evidence based therapy involves drawing on the best scientific evidence (usually derived from randomised controlled clinical trials) and applying it to individual client needs. CBT therapies have been extensively researched within both clinical and general populations.
