Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a collaborative and practical approach that focuses on understanding how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact. It offers a supportive space to explore patterns that may be contributing to distress, and to gently develop new ways of responding to life’s challenges.
CBT is grounded in evidence-based practice while remaining flexible and tailored to the individual. The work is active and reflective, with an emphasis on building understanding, confidence, and skills that can be carried beyond the therapy room.
This approach may be helpful if you…
Feel caught in cycles of anxious, self-critical, or unhelpful thinking
Are experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, or overwhelm
Notice patterns of avoidance or behaviours that keep difficulties going
Want practical tools alongside space to reflect and make sense of things
Are navigating change, pressure, or a loss of confidence
What sessions are like
CBT sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, shaped by what feels most important to you. Together, you and your therapist will explore how difficulties developed and what helps to maintain them, while identifying opportunities for change.
Sessions may involve reflection, gentle questioning, and practical exercises or experiments between sessions. The pace of therapy is guided by your needs, and the relationship with your therapist is central to the work.
Who this service is for
CBT is offered to adults, and may also be available for children and adolescents depending on the clinician. It can be provided in person or online.
