Are you struggling with negative thoughts, destructive behaviors, or overwhelming emotions? You’re not alone. Millions of people grapple with these challenges, but there’s a proven solution that can help you regain control and build a healthier, happier life.
Research shows that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the most effective form of treatment for those coping with depression and anxiety. CBT alone is 50-75% effective for overcoming depression and anxiety after 5 – 15 modules.
At Fenix Recovery, we offer personalized CBT to help you overcome challenges and build a healthier, more fulfilling life. Let’s look more in detail at how CBT can help you better manage your emotions.
So, what is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a well-established, evidence-based form of psychotherapy that empowers you to understand and change the way you think, feel, and behave.
The way we think about a situation directly impacts how we feel emotionally and how we respond through our actions.
When our thoughts are overly critical, pessimistic, or unrealistic, they can fuel anxiety, depression, and other challenges.
CBT teaches you to identify these unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more balanced and realistic ones.
CBT is a collaborative process between you and your therapist. Together, you’ll work through the following steps:
You'll discuss your concerns and challenges, and together, you'll establish specific goals for therapy.
Your therapist will guide you in recognizing the automatic negative thoughts (ANTs) that contribute to your distress. These thoughts are often distorted and based on underlying beliefs about yourself, others, or the world.
You'll learn to examine the evidence for and against your negative thoughts, consider alternative perspectives, and develop more balanced and realistic ways of thinking.
In some cases, you may be encouraged to test out your beliefs through real-life experiments, which can provide valuable insights and help you break free from unhelpful behaviors.
Your therapist will teach you relaxation techniques, problem-solving strategies, and other skills to manage difficult emotions and situations.
Fenix Recovery is here to support your journey towards a renewed life for yourself and your loved ones.
The core principle of CBT is that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected and influence each other. This principle breaks down into several key points:
Thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected and form a triangle. Changing one element can lead to changes in the others.
By identifying and challenging negative or distorted thoughts, we can change how we feel and behave.
We have the power to choose how we interpret events and how we respond to them.
CBT teaches us new skills to manage our thoughts and emotions, leading to positive changes in our behavior.
