I haven't sent a thought over in a couple of days because you've had Pete and Rach there and lots going on. However, I thought it might be nice to send something today before your first CBT. Here's something I was reading that I thought was useful:
Advantages of CBT
- Research has shown CBT can be as effective as medicine in treating many types of depression and other mental health disorders.
- CBT can be completed in a relatively short period of time compared with other types of talking therapies.
- The highly structured nature of CBT means it can be provided in different formats, including in groups, self-help books and computer programs.
- Skills you learn in CBT are useful, practical and helpful strategies that can be incorporated into everyday life to help you cope better with future stresses and difficulties.
Sounds very positive. I hope the first session is good. We're all thinking of you.
Paul, Elizabeth and Aurora
