THERAPY & CBT
PAGE 1 OF 5 — WHAT IS THERAPY?
SAFE TO TALK
TALKING CAN HELP YOUR BRAIN!
Therapy is a special kind of talk with a trained helper who listens and teaches skills for tough feelings. It is not magic and not a punishment. It is teamwork: you share what is going on, and the therapist guides you toward healthier thoughts and actions. People go to therapy for worry, sadness, anger, stress, fears, grief, and many other struggles. Kids, teens, and adults all use it. A good therapist creates a private, respectful space where you do not have to pretend everything is fine. Therapy is one of the most studied treatments in psychology, and many types have strong research behind them.
