FAQ

  • CBTs, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, are psychotherapies developed in the 1960s by psychiatrist Aaron BECK. They are based on the idea that thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are interconnected. They aim to modify negative thought patterns and maladaptive behaviors to improve mental health.

  • CBT sessions are structured and generally follow several steps:

    • First consultation and evaluation: The therapist assesses the patient's issues and goals.

    • Development of a treatment plan: A personalized plan is created to address the patient's specific needs.

    • Techniques used during sessions: Therapists use practical exercises, which patients are encouraged to practice at home, and specific techniques to help patients progress.

  • The duration varies depending on the individual and the issues being treated, but a typical treatment lasts between 10 and 20 sessions.

  • The main difference lies in their approach: EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to reprocess traumatic memories, while CBT focuses on changing thought and behavior patterns.

  • Yes, CBT can be combined with other therapies, such as hypnosis, to enhance therapeutic effects and meet the specific needs of patients.

  • CBT is particularly effective for depression, anxiety, phobias, and eating disorders. It is also notably effective for treating Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). However, it may not be suitable for all patients, especially those with severe psychotic disorders.

  • EMDR is a therapy that uses bilateral stimulation to reprocess traumatic memories. It can be used alongside CBT to address the trauma underlying dysfunctional thought patterns.

  • CBT focuses on modifying current thoughts and behaviors to achieve rapid results, while psychoanalysis explores unconscious conflicts and past experiences for long-term change.

  • CBT is often preferred because it is evidence-based, quick, and teaches practical skills for self-management of symptoms after therapy.

  • Although the two approaches differ, some therapists integrate elements of CBT into a psychoanalytic approach to treat specific symptoms while exploring deeper conflicts.

  • Hypnosis is generally safe when practiced by a trained therapist. However, it may not be effective for everyone, especially for individuals who are not easily hypnotizable.

  • Hypnosis can be used to enhance cognitive interventions in CBT, helping patients overcome cognitive resistance and visualize positive outcomes.
