Child and Adult Counsellor, Worcester, Droitwich and Solihull

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by changing the way you think and behave. It's most commonly used to treat anxiety and depression, but can be useful for other mental  health problems.

CBT helps people to problem-solve. It reveals the relationship between beliefs, thoughts, and feelings, and the behaviours that follow, based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can keep you in a negative cycle affecting your everyday life

​

CBT aims to help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts.

As a therapist I will give you strategies which show you how to change these negative patterns and so improve the way you feel.

• anxiety

• depression

• bipolar disorder

• borderline personality disorder

• eating disorders – such as anorexia and bulimia

• obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)

• panic disorder

• phobias

• post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

• problems related to alcohol misuse
