WHAT IS COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL THERAPY?

What is behavioral therarpy? Cognitive-behavioral therapy is a form of psychotherapy. Its main purpose is to help people understand their thoughts and feelings. It also teaches you how negative internal dialogue influences your behavior.

CBT is a useful option for people who suffer from various mental disorders. For example, therapists use it for anxiety, depression, phobias, and addiction. Overall, thoughts and feelings highly affect the symptoms of any mental illness.

Typically, rehab centers pair CBT with other, long-term therapies. As effective as CBT is, it’s still a short-term method. During CBT, experts focus on your thought process. Clients learn how to change and identify their destructive thoughts to eliminate negative behavior.

HOW DOES CBT FIGHT ADDICTION?

CBT helps people stop destructive behaviors, and addiction motivates these problematic choices. People who seek addiction help truly want to overcome the disease. However, their compulsive behaviors allow the addiction cycle to continue.
Using CBT, experts are able to identify negative thoughts, triggers, and the root cause of addiction. Using this information, they help people overcome their substance abuse problem and embrace lasting sobriety.
CBT is an important part of rehab for many reasons. First, failure to identify the root cause of addiction often leads to future relapse. Additionally, people must change their way of thinking or they’re likely to continue bad habits after rehab.
However, CBT isn’t solely about removing negative thoughts and behaviors. CBT also helps people eliminate impossible goals they set for themselves. Turning goals into realistic ones make them less overwhelming. In general, therapists set up milestones to help people take their recovery one step at a time.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF CBT

Many rehab centers use CBT as a single therapeutic method. However, it’s actually an umbrella term that includes many aspects. For example, the techniques that fall under this category include:
  • Rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT)
  • Cognitive therapy
  • Multimodal therapy
  • Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
Each of these offers its own creative and unique approach to treatment. However, they all fall under CBT because they center on addressing underlying thoughts and behaviors.
REBT focuses on identifying and changing irrational beliefs. For example, an irrational belief might include, “Everyone hates me.” However, logically speaking, it’s impossible for everyone to hate you because you haven’t met everyone.

What is the difference between CBT versus DBT? DBT focuses more on behaviors and thinking patterns. It incorporates different strategies to overcome these negative elements. DBT approaches tend to revolve around mindfulness and emotional regulation.
