Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the 'talking therapies' for mental health conditions. It aims to eliminate negative thoughts and change behaviour in response to these thoughts. It can help with anxiety, panic attacks, depressive disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder and chronic fatigue. Therapy can be provided in face-to-face sessions with a therapist, but delivery by computer can also be effective. It is more effective than counselling for some and can provide long-term protection against relapse, a return of symptoms after improvement. However, patients must be committed to solving their problems and prepared to work on them between sessions.
