What Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?

I often try to explain Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to individuals, and how "Exposure and Response Prevention." This is an old therapy technique, really from behaviour therapy in the 1970-80's. It is as effective as many medications for things like OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). This page provides a great place to start getting to know what Cognitive Behaviour Therapy - CBT is and how it can be effective in the treatment of OCD, anxiety, depression and is an integral part of many other treatments such as couple's therapy, ADHD therapy and even the treatment of symptoms of ASD / Asperger's Disorder. Take a look. Some grew resources.
