CBT in Cranbrook & Kimberley: How does CBT work?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a therapeutic approach focused on the relationship between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. It's like learning the language of your mind – helping you understand how your thoughts shape your feelings and actions.

In CBT, therapists help clients identify negative thought patterns and beliefs that contribute to emotional distress or problematic behaviours. By recognizing these patterns, clients can learn to challenge and reframe them, leading to healthier thoughts and behaviours.

CBT isn't just about talking – it's about equipping clients with practical tools and strategies they can use in their everyday lives. Research shows that CBT is highly effective in treating various mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders.

Haley Casselman, RCC (pictured here), is just one of our team members who integrates CBT into her counselling approach. With a warm and empathetic approach, therapists who use CBT guide clients through the process of understanding and applying techniques to their lives, empowering them to take control of their mental well-being.

By learning to challenge negative thoughts and behaviours, CBT empowers individuals to break free from cycles of distress and live more fulfilling lives. If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth, CBT could be a helpful modality to try. And if it's not for you, that's okay too. We are skilled at tailoring sessions to meet our client's needs.
