How Cognitive Behavior Therapy Works

Addresses distorted, negative thinking
Teaches that emotions come from thoughts
Challenges Shoulds, Oughts, and Musts
Focuses on improving thoughts
Who specifically?
Where did you hear that?
What makes you think that?
When will that happen?
How do you know?
Are your feelings based on fact?
Will your thinking help protect your life and health?
Will your thinking help you achieve your goals?
Will your thinking help you avoid interpersonal conflicts?

Will your thinking help you feel the emotions you want to feel?
