work with you to analyze your thoughts feelings and habits and the various methods they intersect and truly what they’re going to be looking to do is take a look at how your thoughts might be contributing to tough feelings so are your thoughts assisting to sustain a level of anger or sadness or worry and are there manner ins which maybe you can think about circumstances or people or yourself differently in order to feel a little bit much better so if you’re considering counseling I highly motivate you to check out dealing with a CBT therapist due to the fact that it’s a effective and evidence-based way of dealing with a variety of problems and issues if you’re working with the CBT therapist you’re going to discover that the work is very collaborative and it’s truly a group technique to examining the issues that you fight with the other thing that individuals have perhaps a little bit of difficulty getting utilized to or accepting with CBT therapy is that you will get research yes it’s much like being back in school and so a great
CBT therapist is going to appoint you some type of action product or research task to complete in between sessions and the factor for this is truly to assist you practice the skills and strategies that your in session out of session and you will find that you will progress a lot more rapidly through the therapy process if you do your research kind of similar to in school so a couple of other things to understand about cognitive behavioral therapy are that it’s typically a more structured technique than other kinds of therapies and it involves determining goals that you and the counselor accept work with on together and the other key point is that in CBT therapy the counselor truly obtains and invites feedback on how things are going so this goes back to the idea that it’s a really collective approach and it’s not this
idea of the therapist having more understanding than you however just that the therapist has competence in various areas that they can offer and possibly give you various methods of thinking of your problems one of the more common misconceptions about CBT is that c.b.c therapists will not look at your past at all or take a look at how your past might be affecting your present and that’s actually not real in CBT the focus is certainly more on the present and how you’re working in the present but to see an excellent CBT therapist will deal with you on analyzing if there are any concerns in your past that are still affecting your ability to function efficiently and effectively today if you like this video please feel free to subscribe to our YouTube channel where you’ll discover a lot more material on a range of psychological health subjects and if you have an interest in learning more about online therapy Betterhelp Practice Management
