Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured, practical approach that helps people manage several challenges.

Research shows it is highly effective in improving emotional health.

CBT is recommended for many emotional health problems by NICE, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence. This therapy is widely available within the NHS, including in the IAPT programme accessible through GPs.

What Is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Used For?

CBT focuses on understanding how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are connected.

This therapy is often used to deal with challenges such as:

  • Anxiety
  • Post-traumatic stress
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder
  • Low mood

How Does Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Work?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy at Taylored Psychology is a collaborative process where you and your therapist work together to:

  • Identify personal challenges and thought patterns
  • Understand how thoughts affect emotions and behaviours
  • Develop practical skills to manage stress and challenging emotions

Sessions differ from one person to the next, however, at Taylored Psychology, we include activities such as keeping diaries, problem-solving, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques.

CBT is time-limited, with most people attending between 5 and 24 sessions depending on their needs.
