      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, more commonly known as CBT, is a type of therapy that works around the assumption that there are simply some behaviors that cannot be controlled through conscious thought alone. In fact, it posits that all behaviors actually occur thanks to a mixture of internal and external stimuli and a lifetime of conditioning in one an infinite number of ways. While some types of therapy are extremely interested in the deeper meanings associated with various thoughts and actions, CBT is only focused on results. This means it focuses on understanding a specific issue but only so that you have a better way of dealing with it once and for all.

      While it was first created to help those with depression deal with their condition, this type of psychotherapy has become a popular way of dealing with a wide variety of issues including anger and anxiety as well.

CBT has proven especially helpful when treating issues caused by psychotic disorders, nervous tics, eating disorders, dependence disorders, addiction, anxiety disorders, PTSD and mood swings. While no type of therapy is ever going to be right for everyone, it has been proven to help those who are dealing with the conditions outlined above more effectively than psychodynamic
