Mind Blue Print: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Journal Title: Journal of Nursing Today - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Cognitive Behavioral Therepy (CBT) is "problem-focused" and "action-oriented", meaning it is used to treat specific problems related to a diagnosed mental disorder and the therapist's role is to assist the client in finding and practicing effective strategies to address the identified goals and decrease symptoms of the disorder. CBT is based on the belief that thought distortions and maladaptive behaviours play a role in the development and maintenance of psychological disorders, and that symptoms and associated distress can be reduced by teaching new information-processing skills and coping mechanisms.
