What is CBT?

CBT therapy can be beneficial in improving and overcoming a wide range of problems including anxiety and depression. It is also effective in personal growth and development, particularly low self-esteem. CBT offers tools for understanding your thought patterns and how these impact and influence your emotions, physiological responses and unhelpful behaviours. By recognising these patterns, you can start to take control of your life and shape it in ways that you would like. CBT allows you to manage your thoughts in a more balanced and realistic way. Its a journey of self-discovery and positive change. Click the button below for further information.

What can CBT help with?

Who attends CBT therapy?

Life can be a joy, but at times we all face challenges and problems that seem overwhelming. They just seem difficult to manage or change. Many find their life a struggle. You may have travelled your life with a sense of emptiness or self critical thoughts, "I am not good enough", even though you are successful. You may feel that your life is hollow or empty. 

You may have experienced a recent traumatic incident, leading to distress, anxiety and fear. You may struggle with  trauma experienced in childhood and adolescence, which continues to have huge influence on the way you consider yourself, others and the world in general.   Repeated rituals and checking behaviours may hold you back. Experiencing obsessive compulsive behaviour is quite simply dominating your life. Or you may just need to "off load" your emotions. In truth, these examples offer a small insight into why you may seek CBT. The vast majority of people want to make sense of their own experience and make sustained change and recovery.
