Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured form of talking therapy. It has shown to be effective for a wide range of problems, particularly helping people who suffer from mild to moderate depression and anxiety based disorders and is recommended by the Department of Health and the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE). Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a form of therapy that aims to address how your problems are affecting you in the here-and-now. It involves developing an understanding as to how our suicidal thoughts, feelings and motro control and behaviors interact with each other in the development and maintenance of our problems. So for example, when people are depressed they are more likely to view aspects of their life in a negative way.
