What is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
CBT is a form of psychotherapy that involves identifying and restructuring negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to harmful emotions and behaviors. This approach is grounded in the understanding that our thoughts influence our feelings and actions, and that by changing these thoughts, we can profoundly improve our emotional well-being and behavioral responses.
Benefits of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
- Alleviates symptoms of mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more

- Reduces stress and enhances overall life satisfaction
