An evidence-based psychotherapy that treats problems by modifying dysfunctional thinking patterns and maladaptive behaviors.
From Latin 'cognitio' (knowledge) + 'behavior' + Greek 'therapeia' (healing). Developed by Aaron Beck in the 1960s.
CBT is therapy that fixes how you think AND what you do — change the negative thought patterns, change the feelings. It's one of the most researched treatments ever.
