What Is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy?

Cognitive-behavioral therapy, or CBT, is an evidence-based psychotherapy that helps people explore the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This popular therapy helps treat a wide variety of mental health disorders, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, phobias, and substance use disorders.

CBT requires guests to pair up with a psychotherapist or therapist for a preset number of sessions. Here, they learn how to recognize and increase their awareness of unhealthy, dysfunctional, inaccurate, or distorted thought patterns that often pave the way to destructive or self-defeating behavior. It includes those behaviors that lead people to use.

Negative thought patterns often aid people in their use of addictive substances, which is why recovering users must change how they think. A change in thinking and feeling likely will result in changing how one behaves. Awareness develops, and a desire to correct adverse thoughts follows.

Benefits of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy

Individuals who participate in cognitive-behavioral therapy may experience the following benefits as a result of treatment:

  • Learn to manage negative thought patterns and feelings in a healthier way
  • Learn to manage anger and other powerful emotions in a healthier way
  • Learn how to communicate effectively with others and themselves
  • Improved, new, and healthy coping mechanisms replace old, harmful ones
  • Access to professional care and support, as well as educational resources

How could cognitive-behavioral therapy help you? An effective CBT program can be truly life-changing for someone who is open to actively participating and receiving help.
