CBT Cognitive behavioural therapy provides new ways of thinking and ultimately feeling within a short period of time, this therapy usually takes between only 6 - 9 sessions. This is opposed to, often frequently long therapies. Some therapies can go on for many months and even years which, paradoxically may hold that person back from going forward. The longer therapy continues, constantly reminds the client, that their problem is something drastic, becomes more reliant on the therapist, with nothing happening in respect to coping or feeling better.

CBT can be used for many presenting problems, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, anorexia, bulimia, OCD, insomnia, relationship problems, weight reduction, sexual dysfunction and many other issues.

CBT is a solutions based therapy

Providing cognitive, behavioural therapy, CBT, and interpersonal approaches within or without hypnosis, allows the client to think and feel differently and produces sophisticated ways of overcoming future problems. Solutions to problem solving are imperative, significantly reducing a relapse. These coping skills and mechanisms are resources within all of us, allowing the client to change their maladaptive approach, creating positive changes to take place in the individual.

During the past few years, CBT has become the first choice of therapeutic modality, encouraged and recommended by GP's and the psycho-medical fraternity.
