Cognitive behavioral therapy is a popular type of therapy used to treat several types of mental health disorders.
It helps people identify and interpret their emotions and thoughts, and how they influence their behaviors. This allows them to modify each of them to provide them with a full understanding of their reactions. From there, they can develop healthy coping skills to cope with the symptoms of their mental illness. CBT can be done with people of all ages and backgrounds.
A person can take advantage of several types of cognitive behavioral therapy. Residential programs often offer more than one type of CBT, which provides multiple ways for a person to improve their mental health. The different types of CBT include:
Cognitive behavioral therapy was first developed in the 1960s by Aaron Beck. Since then, it has been used to treat multiple types of mental illnesses and addiction to drugs and alcohol. Its adaptations have allowed it to be used to treat adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families.
CBT is recognized by insurance companies as an effective way to help people achieve therapeutic treatment goals.
CBT is often used in residential treatment programs to help people minimize their symptoms.
CBT helps people reframe their thoughts and feelings so they can alter any damaging actions or reactions that occur as a result of them. CBT is time-limited, meaning it will last for a specific number of weeks, months, or sessions. It empowers people by helping them step outside themselves and observe their thoughts, feelings, and actions from an outsider’s point of view.
For example, a person who always assumes the worst possible outcome will happen every time can see that it is a self-defeating thought. Believing it fosters negative feelings, which ends up resulting in a behavior that supports the depression, anxiety, PTSD, or other mental illness they have.
When a person begins cognitive behavioral therapy in San Luis Obispo, the therapist will begin by taking stock of their mental illness, the length and severity of their symptoms, and what treatment goals they want to set.
The therapist will discuss how CBT works, and explain the concept of how interconnected a person’s emotions, thoughts, and behaviors are and how to develop healthy coping mechanisms to make any necessary corrections. The individual’s progress will be monitored as they move through their sessions.
One of the key benefits of using cognitive behavioral therapy is that it helps treat a variety of mental health disorders. They include:
A diagnosis will be made of each person we treat, so our staff understands the exact type of mental health disorder they have and how to treat it.
When someone participates in cognitive behavioral therapy, they can also attend other types of therapies. These include:
