Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps people change how they think, feel, or act in order to improve their mood, reduce stress, or achieve other important health and life goals. Some goals may be specific, such as reducing worrying or procrastination, whereas others can be more general, such as figuring out why one's life seems to lack meaning, passion or direction, and figuring out what to do about it. There are three parts to CBT:
  1. How you think (cognitive) can and does
    change your behavior.
  2. The way you think may be monitored
    and altered.
  3. The desired behavior change may be
    affected through changes in the way you think.

This type of therapy is very effective in trauma, chronic illness, pain management, sports and performing arts.

"Cognitive behavior therapy is focused on the present rather than the past,"

~ said Deanna Barch, Ph.D., an associate professor of psychology in Arts & Sciences at Washington University and supervisor of the social anxieties group therapy project.

"It's focused on the kinds of thoughts, beliefs, ideas that people have currently and how that influences their emotions and behaviors. It also focuses on what behaviors you are actually engaging in and not engaging in at the moment, in the here-and-now."
