Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a practical, evidence-based approach that helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. By identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and learning new ways to respond to them, CBT can help you build skills to manage difficulties more effectively both now and in the future.

How CBT Can Help

CBT is widely used to support people experiencing:

• Anxiety and worry
• Low mood and depression
• Stress and burnout
• Low self-esteem
• Difficulty coping with life changes or challenges
• Unhelpful patterns of thinking or behaviour

What to Expect

Sessions are collaborative and structured. Together, we’ll identify the thoughts and behaviours contributing to your current difficulties, and work through practical strategies and techniques you can apply in everyday life. CBT is typically goal-oriented and time-limited, with an emphasis on building skills you can continue to use well beyond our sessions.

Our Approach

As a trained CBT therapist, I bring both clinical training and a social work lens to our work together, meaning sessions consider not just your thoughts and behaviours, but the broader context of your life, relationships, and circumstances. This integrated approach means support is practical, personalised, and grounded in your everyday reality.

Getting Started

If you’re not sure whether CBT is the right fit for you, that’s okay we can talk through your situation and figure out the best approach together. [neda@aboutyou.services)
