Cognitive behavioral therapy is based on the idea that inaccurate thoughts and beliefs can lead to negative emotions, such as anxiety and depression, and unhealthy behaviors, such as overeating and substance abuse. Through exploration and observations you can gain a greater awareness of your thoughts and beliefs and learn how they shape your experiences. With this awareness you can learn to adopt more realistic viewpoints and healthier behaviors that can lead to a greater sense of wellbeing.
