Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of ‘talking therapy’ that can help children and adolescents manage their feelings by changing the way they think and what they do. In CBT, the psychologist will educate your child or adolescent about how their thoughts, feelings and behaviors are interlinked. Together, they work out the best way to make changes and overcome difficulties. CBT is a highly recommended treatment for many conditions including anxiety and depression.
