CBT is a short-term psychological treatment and helps people to achieve specific, focused goals. It can help people overcome problems ranging from phobias and panic attacks, to eating disorders and depression.
Clinical trials show that CBT has been successful in addressing various emotional problems. It has been proven in both the short term and long term to be more effective than medication, and other therapies, for the treatment of many emotional problems; ranging from mild to severe, and including depressive and anxiety disorders.
CBT produces lasting changes that will not only help you with your current difficulties, but that can provide you with coping strategies for the future, and new problems you may encounter.
