Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidenced-based mental health treatment that has been shown to help depression, anxiety disorders, addictions, marital problems, eating disorders, and other mental illnesses.
CBT is based on several fundamental concepts, such as:
1. Some mental health struggles stem from patterns of thinking that are wrong or not helpful.
2. Some psychological problems are caused by bad habits that people have learned over time.
3. People with mental struggles can learn better ways to deal with them, making their symptoms go away and making them more useful in their lives.
Most of the time, CBT involves trying to change your thoughts. Learning to recognize how your thinking is skewed and causing issues, and then rethinking those ways in light of truth. Using problem-solving skills to deal with stressful situations. Learning to develop a greater level of confidence is one’s own ability.
Changing behavior patterns is also a common part of CBT treatment. Some of these techniques could be:
• Facing your fears instead of running away from them.
• Using role-playing to prepare for interactions with other people that could be difficult.
• Learning how to relax your mind and body.
What Matters to the Study of Human Personality?
What exactly is a belief?
Belief is anything we believe to be true. Not all beliefs are true in reality. Some belief systems are adaptable and promote mental health, whereas others are maladaptive and promote a mental disorder. What we believe has a significant impact on our lives. Beliefs influence our thinking, conduct, and emotions.
Human Development
The majority of beliefs are learned. Parents have a significant impact on the formation of belief systems. Parents "teach" their children their views. Beliefs build throughout a lifetime. Irrational views are prevalent in the secular world (lies). Children seldom examine the "truth" of ideas. They usually simply accept what we teach them to be true. As the brain grows, so does the potential to form increasingly sophisticated belief systems. We were created and designed to have objective beliefs but became victims of our environment and circumstances.
Individuals' primary beliefs reflect their personalities.
Personality develops when parents pass on their beliefs to their offspring. Biology also impacts personality as well—genes, underlying sensitivities, and so on.
When an individual's basic beliefs are maladaptive, personality disorders develop. Beliefs influence drive or inability.
What we believe drives us to act and behave in ways that support our views.
Illness of the Mind and Spirit
Many of our beliefs are deceptive.
Most psychological issues may be traced back to "false beliefs."
Mental illness is linked to believing in "lies" about ourselves, our environment, and God.
Maladaptive fundamental beliefs impact one's thinking, behavior, and emotions.
"False beliefs" or "falsehoods" often result in psychological issues and "mental sickness."
False ideas harm one's thinking, conduct, and emotions.
False beliefs (falsehoods) may divide and separate us from God.
The Bible is the source of "truths."
Jesus is the "way, truth, and life."
The path to mental wellness is a path to the truth.
The Fruits of the Spirit provide evidence of mental wellness.
Role of Integration and Multitasking
Christian Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CCBT) incorporates both psychology and faith.
Secular therapeutic procedures and cognitive therapy facts are merged into CCBT.
CCBT incorporates secular therapeutic methodologies with behavioral therapy concepts (and behavior modification). Draws on a body of scientific literature that has clearly proved CBT's effectiveness and usefulness in treating psychiatric problems. CCBT is rooted in integration. It combines secular treatment methods with truths from the Christian faith. CCBT is an "extension" of traditional CBT that adds biblical truths. I believe Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior; I believe in the Truth of scripture, the power of prayer, and the power of the Holy Spirit, all essential to the theory.
