What is CBT?

A practical, proven therapy to help you understand yourself and feel more in control

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps you understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are connected—and how they may be keeping you stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re not good enough, overthinking everything, or stuck in cycles of self-criticism, CBT can help you break free from those unhelpful habits and build something stronger: confidence, clarity, and self-trust.

How CBT Works

CBT helps you notice the invisible loops running in the background of your mind—like:

  • “I’m not good enough”

  • “People are judging me”

  • “I’ll mess this up, so why try?”

These thoughts affect how you feel and what you do. Over time, they shape how you see yourself and the world.

In CBT, we gently untangle these patterns so you can respond in new, more helpful ways. It’s not about “thinking positive.” It’s about learning how to:

  • Notice and challenge unhelpful thoughts

  • Reduce anxiety, self-doubt, and avoidance

  • Develop practical tools to manage everyday stress

  • Build healthier beliefs about yourself and what you’re capable of

CBT for Low Self-Esteem

If low self-esteem is something you’ve lived with for years, it may feel like “just the way I am.” But CBT shows us that these patterns were learned—and that means they can be unlearned too.

You’ll learn to:

  • Identify your inner critic and where it comes from

  • Challenge harsh self-beliefs and perfectionism

  • Build self-confidence through action, not just talk

  • Learn self-compassion and emotional resilience

What CBT is used to treat?

  • Depression

  • Worry

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder( PTSD)

  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

  • Social Anxiety

  • Low self esteem

  • Panic

  • Stress

  • Health Anxiety

  • Phobias

  • Body Dysmorphia

What CBT is Not

CBT isn’t about being told what to do or pushed to “fix” yourself. It’s collaborative, meaning we work as a team—and it moves at a pace that feels right for you. You bring the experience; I bring the tools.

Will It Work for Me?

If you’re ready to understand yourself better and want support in making lasting changes, CBT can help. It’s a great fit for people who feel stuck in their thoughts and want practical support to move forward.
