One helpful tool in treating mental health conditions is known as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, often abbreviated as CBT. CBT is an evidenced-based therapy modality. This means research has found it to be effective in treating mental health conditions, and because of this, it is often covered by health insurance.
This modality is effective in treating a wide variety of mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, stress, adjustment disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and trauma.
CBT focuses on the critical and complex connection between thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Through an in-depth and professional look at this connection, individuals can develop a stronger understanding of it and therefore better navigate situations in life.
This modality often includes identifying and challenging “cognitive distortions” which are negative thought patterns that can impact your emotions or behaviors. In addition, CBT frequently integrates exploration of healthy coping strategies and behaviors to improve emotions.
