What is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)?
Once safety has been established in your day to day life, you may seek to address a longer term pattern. There are lots of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) protocols we can work through together for Depression, Anxiety or Trauma. I have worked regularly with people on childhood trauma, social anxiety, panic attacks, addictions, and psychosis using CBT. These treatments are effective, but please be prepared for daily practice and intensive record keeping for this type of therapy.
If you’re struggling with panic attacks then Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) could help decrease their intensity so you can get back to living your life.
We often use workbooks to help keep treatment on track especially if treating a diagnosed disorder such as social anxiety or panic disorder. It works best if you can commit to 3 or 4 weekly sessions in a row to get some momentum going before going to biweekly or monthly sessions.
Avoidance feeds Anxiety.
CBT may sound complicated, but it is really all about challenging avoidance and building on small, consistent successes.
