Cognitive Behavioral Therapy:

 The primary goal of CBT is to give you the tools and skills to successfully navigate the difficulties of your life. The result is that over time you will become your own therapist.  

This therapeutic approach examines cognitively how you think, which is linked behaviorally to what you do. When you begin to realize this correlation, you can start to see that what possibly has worked in the past is no longer working, or worse, your thoughts and actions are what is causing the distress. CBT helps you focus on truth and the realities of a situation, rather than living in fear of the unknown future, believing that it is true before it has even happened. What you choose to believe, your perspective, is what drives your actions, and also will cause you feel a certain way. It can begin with a thought then a feeling then a behavior, or a situation may make you feel something, which makes you think something, which makes you behave a certain way. CBT has been proven to be one of the most effective approaches to addressing a wide variety of circumstances & unhealthy living.
