Cognitive behavioral therapy, said aloud as CBT represents not one therapy but a class of therapies, unified by a science of the heart, mind, and body. CBT involves understanding both the role of cognitive experience (thoughts, feelings, sensations and memories) and behavior (what you do or say). A simple CBT intervention is to track what you think and how it impacts what you do next. Take for example if you have the thought "it's going to rain today" that might impact your behavior, especially if that thought is highly believable. You might find yourself packing a raincoat or umbrella. Although this is an innocuous example, imagine the myriad of painful thoughts, feelings, sensations, and memories that can rule one's behavior. CBT specifically targets your cognitive experience simultaneously with a focus on what you do to create new patterns of responding and therefore living.
