Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (also known as CBT) is a type of talking therapy based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a vicious cycle.

It tries to help you deal with problems by breaking them down into smaller parts.

One technique that therapists use during CBT with people who suffer from excessive worry is to train them to notice when they are worrying and try to build more constructive habits of problem solving and distraction. WorryTree is designed to support this element of CBT.
