Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a widely used form of psychotherapy that focuses on changing negative thought patterns and behaviors to improve emotional regulation and overall well-being. In a therapeutic setting, CBT is typically used to help individuals identify and challenge irrational or unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that contribute to negative emotions and behaviors. As a mental health provider, the combination of CBT and medication, often called the biopsychosocial approach is a common and effective approach in the treatment of various mental health conditions.
