Our COUNSELLING and CBT episode. What actually is talking therapy?

Available for over a year

Clinical Psychology Professor Paul Salkovskis and Consultant Clinical Psychologist Dr Blake Stobie join Vinny & Cate to demystify talking therapies. We explore the differences between counselling, psychotherapy and CBT; how therapy creates change; common misconceptions; what happens in a typical session and how to access support through NHS Talking Therapies and private providers. We also discuss practical CBT techniques that can help identify unhelpful thinking patterns, manage anxiety and support emotional wellbeing.
