Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a form of therapy that helps people see the connection between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings and how they impact how we experience our day to day life. Cognitive behavioral therapy can shed light on unhelpful beliefs and thoughts that negatively impact how we experience ourselves and our lives. Do you feel not enough? Do you feel unlovable? Is it hard to trust in yourself and others? Read on to see how CBT can help.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT is a form of therapy that helps people see the difference between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and free them from unhelpful patterns of behavior.
CBT is grounded in the belief that it is what you tell yourself about a situation- rather than the situation itself – that determines how you will feel and act in response.
The story you tell yourself about yourself and your life can either help you or can make you feel unhappy and unworthy. Together we can unpack and challenge those thoughts that keep you from living your best life.
If the story you tell yourself about you and your life is leaving you unhappy there is hope.
