We look at our thinking, perceptions, and interpretations to see if there are changes that can be made to help us to feel better. We also look at our behaviours -  the things we do and the things we don’t do to see how helpful these are and what we can do to change these. CBT is a solution-focused therapy,  often getting long-lasting results in a short space of time.

In the first instance, we spend some time making sense of things together - this process is called formulating. From here we are able to have a shared understanding of how things fit together, what's keeping the problem going, and where we need to make changes.
