More about CBT

Cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) is a practical, focused method of making positive change in people's lives. It helps people to understand their problems as well as providing a series of techniques which empowers them to live fulfilling lives according to their own values and needs.

Through the process of CBT, people learn how to feel less stressed, anxious and irritable, develop improved wellbeing and happiness, enhance their emotional resilience (the ability to ‘bounce back' from difficulties), identify new ways to overcome / solve their problems, and improve their lives in important areas at work and at home.

  • Social phobia and shyness
  • General stress
  • Anger
  • Eating disorders
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
