The Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Explanation

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a strategy used in talking treatments as a way of helping people manage their problems or phobias. This treatment is used to change the way people think and behave, and it also helps to develop practical ways to deal with phobias. Furthermore, the CBT exposes people to their fears, and gradually they may feel less anxious about it; this is also known as exposure or desensitization therapy.
