CBT Hampshire Cognitive behavioural therapy for anxiety

Cognitive behavioural therapy is an evidence based treatment approach. One of the core ideas of CBT is how emotional reactions and behaviours are influenced by cognitions - thoughts. So it is how thoughts affect feelings and how these affect behaviours and your physical state. Using CBT interventions allows the opportunity to work with the levels of negative automatic thoughts, dysfunctional assumptions and core beliefs, updating the old patterns of thinking and maintenance processes that kept the problem going, into new and more useful ways of thinking that generate the required behaviours.
