Frequently asked questions

What is CBT and how does it help with anxiety?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is the most evidence-based psychological treatment for anxiety. It works by identifying and examining the thought patterns (cognitions) that drive anxiety, testing them against evidence, and developing more balanced ways of thinking. A thought record (this worksheet) is one of the core CBT tools for anxiety management. If anxiety is significantly affecting your life, please speak to your GP about CBT referral or Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services.
