Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured form of psychotherapy that helps people identify and change negative thought patterns that influence emotions and behaviors. It focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT is effective for treating anxiety, depression, phobias, and stress. Through guided sessions, individuals learn coping skills, problem-solving techniques, and ways to challenge distorted thinking. The goal is to replace unhelpful beliefs with balanced, realistic ones. With consistent practice, CBT empowers individuals to manage emotions more effectively and lead a more fulfilling life.
