Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT is a NICE recommended talking therapy. CBT is an evidence based, solution-focused approach to helping people manage symptoms of anxiety and depression, among other difficulties. 

​

CBT works on the idea that the way we think affects the way we behave and vice versa. For example, if someone thinks "spiders are dangerous" they will likely run away when they see a spider. The problem is, the more they run away, the more the thought about them being dangerous, will be reinforced. 

​

CBT aims to help people change the way they think and the way they behave in response to such thoughts, and this helps them learn to manage difficulties. 

​
