CBT Inverclyde Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by looking at the way you think and behave.

Case study -

Take Tina, who worked in publishing. She met her boss in the lift and said 'good morning', but her boss didn't reply. In no time Tina was thinking thoughts like:
my boss doesn't like me
no-one likes me
I'm going to lose my job
life is hell. These thoughts were responsible for Tina plunging into a low mood. Tina didn't for one minute consider that her boss may not have heard her or that her boss might have been pre-occupied with her own thoughts. Tina realised she was always getting upset about such situations, and she started therapy to try to sort things out. In a few weeks, she came to understand how negative thoughts were causing her to be unhappy. Tina also learned how to spot when she was jumping to conclusions in this way. Then, with help, she was able to challenge these negative thoughts by looking for evidence to see if they were really true. They were rarely true, so Tina was only upsetting herself by thinking in such a way. This is what many of us do. Cognitive therapy teaches us to stop thinking so negatively, to challenge untrue thoughts and to replace them with more rational and healthy ones

Will CBT work for me? The benefits of cognitive therapy are well researched. CBT suits individuals with all sorts of problems – including depression, anxiety, phobias, difficult relationships, obsessive-compulsive disorder and eating disorders, especially bulimia nervosa. For many patients it has been found to be more helpful than any other kind of treatment, including antidepressants.

After a day of do not disturb yesterday I’m back to work today!

So…..I see this all the time and normally let it pass me by, however I’ve had a lot of people over the years come to me after sessions with someone calling themselves a coach or starting a coaching business with no actual training with a human being or therapy background. Please be wary of these online courses and also practitioners promoting themselves as ‘specialist coaches’ in a specific field. This may be a great toolkit to add on for someone who is clinically trained, regulated and accredited but it is not a stand alone qualification. More and more of these are surfacing, I saw a groupon deal for CBT therapy training recently as well. My peers and I go through EXTENSIVE training, continuous supervision and auditing to be able to do the job we do and that’s after appropriate undergraduate qualification. This post is not about my business it’s about protecting vulnerable people from further damage. Always check governing bodies, experience and qualifications before signing up with a coach! There are coaches out there who go through proper training to provide a service if that’s what you’re looking for. As always ✌🏼❤️
