CBT:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

A therapy that focuses on changing negative thought patterns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely-used form of psychotherapy that helps individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors. By replacing these with more positive and constructive thoughts and actions, CBT aims to improve emotional regulation and develop personal coping strategies that target solving current problems. It is commonly used to treat a range of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, and phobias.
