Cognitive Behavioural Therapy – How Does CBT Work?
In this episode, Monica, Cognitive Behavioural Therapist at Everyturn, and Emily, Chief Commercial Officer at Everyturn, have an interesting conversation about Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) – what it is, how it works, and where to access support.
‘It’s a talking therapy that helps people explore their relationship between thoughts, feelings, emotions, but also their behaviours – so what they do.”
CBT is an evidence-based talking therapy to treat problems such as:
- Anxiety disorders
- Depression and low mood
- Insomnia
- Long-term health conditions
It is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
CBT aims to make you feel better by giving you the tools to change how you respond to certain situations, and helping you to manage negative thoughts.
