Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a technique designed to help people to think more realistically and to problem-solve challenging situations that may arise in their personal and working lives. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy differs from other forms of therapy in that it is focused on the present rather than investigating the past.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy has been demonstrated to be highly effective for a number of issues that include:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Panic
- Alcohol Abuse
- Eating Disorders
- Phobias
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
- Insomnia
- Anger Management
- Relationship Problems.
