What can I expect from my first CBT session?

Best Answer

CBT can be done one on one or as a group.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is the term for a number of therapies that are designed to help solve problems in people’s lives, such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or drug misuse.

CBT was developed from two earlier types of psychotherapy:
Cognitive therapy, designed to change people’s thoughts, beliefs, attitudes and expectations.
Behavioural therapy (also called behaviourism, designed to change how people acted.

The activities you will undergo are problem solving, scenario role plays and applying CBT to your daily life.

CBT is not for everyone (myself included) and is actually hard work, you really need to put maximum effort in to get the full rewards.
