What is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) ?

Christine uses techniques derived from CBT to help her clients.  By identifying unhelpful thinking patterns it is possible to help with common psychological disorders. 

CBT offers effective techniques to enable the individual to begin to recognise the blind-spots in their day to day thoughts that bring about emotional upsets.  Because the central psychological problem is concerned with their conscious thought processes or cognitions, this type of counselling is often call Cognitive Therapy.  

When thinking processes are adapted to be more helpful, behavioural change is often achieved, and the individual finds themselves with healthier emotional functioning i.e. they feel happier!
