Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely-used therapeutic approach that helps individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns. These automatic thoughts often influence behaviors and emotions in ways that can be unhelpful or even harmful.
Through CBT, clients learn to recognize distorted thinking, understand the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and develop healthier ways of interpreting their experiences. Over time, this process leads to improved mood, better decision-making, and more adaptive coping strategies for everyday life.
