ognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used therapeutic approach that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is based on the premise that our thoughts and perceptions influence our emotions and behaviors, and by changing our thoughts, we can change our feelings and behaviors. In practice, CBT is utilized by mental health professionals such as psychologists, counselors, and therapists to help individuals address a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety disorders, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and many others.
