PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES & PROFESSIONAL TRAINING
The mission of CBT Australia is to promote excellence in cognitive behaviour therapy through the provision of therapy and professional training.
Cognitive behaviour therapy is the term used for a school of therapies that share the underlying assumption that people are disturbed not by events in their lives but by their beliefs about those events. It is a logical and practical approach to help people with their emotional problems; as such it can be extremely empowering and can bring lasting relief after short term treatment.
Research shows considerable evidence that cognitive behaviour therapy provides effective relief across the lifespan for many anxiety, depressive and behavioural difficulties. Research also indicates that for some problems it is the treatment of choice. In practice, the cognitive behaviour therapist helps the client identify thoughts and beliefs that lead to distress, then explores and re-evaluates those thoughts, before helping the client develop more constructive and helpful emotions and behaviour.
