What happens

In the first place at Perspectives-CBT we offer an initial assessment appointment in order to identify:

  • If CBT is likely to be of help
  • The factors maintaining the presenting problem
  • Specific treatment goals
  • A treatment plan
  • The amount of sessions likely to be required to treat the problem

In therapy the therapist and the client work together to modify the patterns of thinking and behaviour, which are maintaining the problem.

The client plays an active role in therapy and systematically practices the skills learned in therapy sessions.

Sessions typically take place on a weekly basis and last for one hour.
