CBT focuses on how your thoughts trigger emotions and in the end impact your behavior.
Together we can gain insight into your thoughts and how they can cause different interpretations or perceptions of events. In time, with appropriate skills, you will learn how to work through these type of unhelpful thoughts and stop triggering uncomfortable emotions and behaviors.
The goal is to change patterns of thinking, to change the way you feel and behave. It’s about stopping the intrusive, worrisome, and negative thoughts that occur, to increase self-efficacy.
Things that could occur in session would be various activities such as reframing negative thoughts into positive thoughts or challenging your thoughts by looking for facts, probability, or worse case scenario.
