CBT AND THERAPY: £80 - £130 PER SESSION
Fees vary depending on the therapist and type of support required.
Face-to-face CBT sessions are available from our Preston location, with online appointments also available depending on the therapist and individual needs.
HOW DOES CBT WORK?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and behaviours. During CBT, you may work with your therapist to identify patterns of thinking or behaviour that are contributing to difficulties in everyday life.
Therapy can then help you explore these patterns, test different ways of responding and develop practical coping strategies.
CBT often involves setting goals and practising techniques between sessions so that the skills discussed in therapy can be applied in day-to-day situations.
The aim is not simply to replace “negative thoughts” with positive ones, but to develop a more balanced understanding of situations and find more helpful ways of responding to them.
IS CBT THE RIGHT TYPE OF SUPPORT FOR YOU?
CBT may be helpful for people experiencing difficulties such as anxiety, depression, panic, phobias, stress, sleep problems and some other emotional or behavioural difficulties.
Whether CBT is the most appropriate form of therapy will depend on your individual circumstances, symptoms and goals.
If you are unsure whether CBT is right for you, the team can explain the available therapy options before you book.
OUR CBT SESSIONS
CBT sessions are available in a relaxed and supportive setting from our Preston location or online. Your therapist will work with you to understand the thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and behaviours that may be contributing to the difficulties you are experiencing.
CBT may involve practical work between sessions, such as keeping records, completing questionnaires or practising strategies discussed with your therapist. The number of sessions will depend on your individual needs, goals and progress.
WHAT CAN CBT HELP WITH?
CBT is commonly used to support people experiencing a range of mental health and emotional difficulties, including anxiety disorders, depression, panic, phobias, stress and some sleep-related difficulties.
It may also form part of a wider treatment plan for other difficulties, depending on the person’s needs and clinical circumstances.
CBT can help people develop practical ways of managing symptoms, understanding patterns and responding differently to difficult situations.
Where appropriate, CBT may be used alongside other forms of therapy, medication or specialist mental health support.
