CBT

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is widely regarded as an expedient therapeutic approach that yields swift results. As compared to other forms of therapy, CBT is relatively concise and time-limited. The underlying premise of CBT is that our emotions and actions are not dictated by external circumstances, but rather by our thoughts and perceptions.This perspective suggests that we possess greater agency than we might realize, and that we can effect change by altering our thought patterns.
