About CBT
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), is a talking therapy that has been proven to help treat a wide range of issues and is recommended by the NHS. CBT works with the idea that our thoughts, behaviours, emotions, and bodily sensations are all connected. By changing what we do (our behaviour) or changing how we think (our thoughts), we can change how we feel.
​
Using CBT, can help identify any unhelpful patterns that may be keeping your difficulties going. The focus is on making changes in the here and now, and on teaching you skills for life that will help you not only to get well, but to stay well.
​
CBT has an excellent evidence base for a wide range of mental health problems in adults, older adults, children and young people. This research has been carefully reviewed by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), who provide independent, evidence-based guidance for the NHS on the most effective ways to treat disease and ill health.

Our CBT Therapists - Joanna, Claire and Sakina - have full accreditation with the BABCP.
