What is CBT?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is an evidence-based approach that focuses on how your thoughts affect your feelings and behaviours. By identifying and challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, CBT empowers you to develop healthier perspectives and practical coping strategies.
CBT is highly effective for conditions such as:
Anxiety and panic disorders
Depression and low mood
Stress and burnout
Low self-esteem
Trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Relationship difficulties
At Open Horizons Psychology, we tailor CBT to your personal needs and goals, ensuring your treatment is both practical and effective.
