What is CBT ?
"Cognitive-Behavior
Therapy is devoted to the relief of human suffering using
methods that have been shown to work. The latest in scientific
advances are used to design personalized treatments in a
culturally sensitive manner. In CBT the therapist and client
work together to determine the goals for therapy, the agenda for
each session, home practice between sessions, the usefulness of
each intervention, and how long to continue therapy."
What is CBT used for?
"Because CBT is based on broad principles of human
learning and adaptation, it can be used to accomplish a wide
variety of goals. CBT has been applied to issues ranging from
depression and anxiety to the improvement of the quality of
parenting, relationships and personal effectiveness."
Cognitive
Behavioral Therapy may also be used to treat insomnia, body
image, depression, social phobia, other phobias and many other
human conditions.
Cognitive
behavioral therapy is effective and can be customized to meet
each individual's needs.
One method, a step-by-step,
skill simplifying, repetitive and reward-giving approach of
cognitive behavioral therapy can be used with many learning
disorders. One mentioned above is OCD. Another is
