All I know is that … All I know is that CBT saved my life and changed me from a very very debilitated and ill person into someone who can function and be successful once more. If you are out there and in pain believe me you can be well again and what you are experiencing right now is just temporary. life will be rich and refreshed for you, you just need to hang on. CBT worked for me. Maybe it could work for you?
Short term means it … Short term means it makes permanent changes over a very short term treatement period. You will not need other therapies afterwards. CBT has the evidence to prove it works, unlike almost all other forms of psychotherapy.
why do people … why do people repeat what he’s already saying in the video? yes, it works short term. yes, you might need therapy again, that kind or another kind. and yes, it doesn’t work for everyone. etc. it’s pretty clear.
CBT has proven to … CBT has proven to be effecting SHORT TERM but long term it is not, by itself, the answer. Its a bit like putting pressure on a bleeding artery. It works in the short term, but other means need to be used to effect long term results.
there is a wide … there is a wide range of evidence for hypnotherapy–in fact many of the concepts used in hypnotherapy were later borrowed by CBT-if you like i can send you links to the resurch
State sponsored … State sponsored because it can help people recover from many emotional problems and regain their lives. The state has nothing to do with designing the CBT therapy program. Scary – you obviously have no knowledge of CBT.
NHS prefers CBT … NHS prefers CBT because it is proven to work for a large percentage of people. Psychodynamic therapy is available in many NHS primary care trusts but is not widely used because their is very little evidence for its effectiveness.
CBT has been shown … CBT has been shown time and time again by independent research to be effective for all kinds of mental health issues. Do you have any evidence hypnotherapy or NLP are effective? In particular, NLP is simply pseudoscience.
its far less drawn … its far less drawn out than any other talk therapies,where have you gotten that idea?.Its the most evidence based therapy in existance,Hypnotherapy and nlp have no scientific backing at all.they are for quacks and idiots who believe in them.
its not cheap at … its not cheap at all and has proven effect.The person alters their beliefs,thoughts and behavioural reactions ,the therapist doesnt do it.This change may also be neurophysiological and observed on mri scans.
yeah it is true.. … yeah it is true..one therapy doesn’t suit every individual..some therapies use mixed therapies like the Corey who uses, psychoanalysis, humanistic and CBT approaches for therapy..in any other way, the patient has the freedom to select their therapist and counselor..just remember the therapist is more likely aligned to their subjective perspective.
CBT is a long drawn … CBT is a long drawn out process another buzz word like another type diet which has come on to the “market”. They are selling it by having professors and other health professionals who want to publish inadequate papers on therapy which does little to help the client. Best to consider quick and effective approaches such as hypnotherapy and NLP appraoches.
Funny to read all … Funny to read all the comments about CBT in the British system. Here in the States, we have such a different system, so I don’t associate it with a government program. (We’ve got over 40 million people without any insurance, and I’m on the verge of being one of them, so I wish I had an NHS to even complain about.) I have heard very good things about CBT, especially for depression, and am reading up on it.
Interestng that … Interestng that since CBT has been authorised by the Government as the ONLY useful therapy, CBT therapists have started to charge more and more money. Other therapists and counsellors have been providing an excellent service for years – at half the price.
Having trained both … Having trained both as a counsellor and CBT therapist it is recognised by most professionals in the world of psychology that all theoretical approaches have their merit. The advantage that CBT has is that its outcomes are measurable, with this I mean that we can accurately measure by how much people get better, unfortunately other forms of counselling or therapy are, at this point in time, only really able to provide anecdotal evidence of patients getting better.
Person Centered … Person Centered Therapy is also an excellent therapy. It shouldn’t just be about cognitive behavioural therapy. One size does not fit everyone.
CBT can sometimes work against people who have long term and recurring endogenous depression. There needs to be some thinking outside the box.
CBT is excellent for many people but there has to be more than just one therapy technique.
ok … CBT is very … ok … CBT is very good because it doesnt involve the use of drugs and equips you with the tools to think your way around your own mental shit. Its not for everyone, but works very well on most people including clinically depressed so seems how it has absolutely no side effects whatsoever dont rule it out. Stop thinking everything has a Tony Blair tag on it somewhere.. Thats just paranoia
I took this for … I took this for anxiety. It completely changed the way I thought about the anxiety. At first if I felt anxious, I would panic. After therapy, whenever I felt anxious, I could just deal with it. Wonderful, I fully recommend it.
A cognitive behaviour therapy expert explains how this psychological treatment works and who could benefit from it.
