What Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the most empirically researched therapeutic approaches that emphasizes one’s self-thought process and psychological distress that disrupts the cognitive processes in changing the way one thinks resulting in a positive healthy change in behavior and affect. In other words, this therapy acts upon psychological distress in reducing destructive behaviors caused by the distress and over the course of treatments, an individual will be able to identify new ways of reacting to difficulties that may trigger the negative behaviors impacting the patient’s daily life.
Who Should Pursue Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
CBT is effective when working in family, couples, and group settings. It’s also commonly applied when working with children, adolescences and individuals with depression and anxiety disorders. This approach results in positive behavioral changes due to collaborative therapeutic relationship between client and counselor, in which the individual plays an active role in and out of the session.
Since CBT does promote independency of the client, individuals are expected to complete assignments on their own time, such as writing journals, using relaxation techniques, distraction from the stimulus and breathing control to name a few. CBT incorporates homework assignments that focus on changing the individual’s self-thoughts, and perspectives. It helps identify what is realistic, true and rational.
