It started out as treatment for depression, but has branched out to anxiety disorders.
ReplyDeleteCognitive behavioral therapy is a form of treatment that helps people with mental illnesses improve their coping by examining the relationships between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to discover and change beliefs and patterns of thinking that lead to self-destructive thoughts or actions. This is different from normal psychotherapy because the patient and therapist work hand-in-hand in overcoming the mental illness at hand, involving homework and practice when not in session. The patient learns to identify irrational beliefs they may have and prove them wrong. Because this causes the patient to actually change their own brain’s behavior, studies have shown that the brain may actually be improving its overall functioning in result of this therapy and that this can be as useful as antidepressants and even better in the way that it can fight against relapsing symptoms. Some illnesses that can be resolved by using CBT are mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, substance abuse disorders, sleep disorders and psychotic disorders. CBT has provided itself with outstanding scientific data backing up its use in the clinical treatment of mental illnesses; therefore it has become very popular among many therapists and patients. Because of this, an increasing number of psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and psychiatric nurses have received training in CBT.
ReplyDeleteI would just like to add that I LOVE this approach. I am all for powering through and becoming stronger without medication if you can. I think this method should be used first before resorting to medication. I think anyone can be happy if they literally set their mind to it.
Cognitive behavioral therapy CBT focusses on the relationship between a person thoughts, behaviors, and a person’s emotions. By looking at these relationships we can tell if someone needs help or not having a health view of their life. When a person is not happy with one aspect of their life and they change another aspect of their body to make up for the part they are not happy with this can lead to a mental illnesses. This also looks at what is the reality and what a person might believe is reality, such as if they believe they are in danger. If they believe that they are really in danger their behaviors and actions will also show them trying to get out of danger. What the CBT does is looks at this relationship and tries to change one aspect, such as showing a person they are really not in danger. Because they change that thought, it is a change reaction that changes that person actions because they no longer feel like they are in danger.
ReplyDeleteCognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a method of therapy that is centered on the belief that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are heavily associated with one another; CBT focuses on examining the relationships between these human factors. It is a problem-focused and goal-oriented form of therapy, with self-monitoring playing a major role in regards to the individual seeking help, especially in terms of writing down their automatic thoughts. There is a strong sense of guidance, with therapists mainly focusing on trying to come up with solutions hand-in-hand with the patient. Mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, substance abuse, sleep disorders, and psychotic disorders are some issues that CBT has been shown to be useful in treating. I believe this to be because CBT offers a sense of validity and higher self-worth in a patient, allowing them to believe that they play a major factor in their well-being, as opposed to just sitting back and being offered solutions or medications.
