Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured and evidence-based form of psychotherapy that focuses on understanding and changing patterns of thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress and problems in daily functioning. In CBT, the therapist works collaboratively with the patient to identify negative or unhelpful thought patterns and beliefs, challenge them through logical analysis and evidence, and develop more adaptive and realistic ways of thinking. Additionally, CBT helps individuals learn and practice coping skills and behavioral strategies to manage and overcome challenges effectively. By targeting the interplay between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, CBT aims to alleviate symptoms, improve coping mechanisms, and promote lasting changes in how individuals perceive and respond to life's stressors.
