The essence of CBT

CBT is based on a number of beliefs, including the following:

  • Unhelpful ways that people think can lead to psychological problems.
  • If people learn unhelpful behavior, this, too, can lead to psychological issues.

  • New habits can relieve symptoms of mental and physical conditions and allow people to act in better ways.
