Changing Negative Beliefs
By exploring and challenging negative beliefs and thoughts related to the traumatic event, CPT empowers clients to reframe their experiences and create new, more adaptive cognitive patterns.
In CPT, clients learn to identify and address the cognitive distortions and maladaptive beliefs that contribute to their distress. Through a collaborative and structured process, clients are guided to examine the meaning they have assigned to the traumatic event and explore alternative interpretations that promote healing and resilience.
