Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Negative Core Beliefs (NCBs) – Treatment

Please note that this is a “follow-on” article. It is best read after my articles “Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Negative Core Beliefs (NCBs) – Causes” and “Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Negative Core Beliefs (NCBs) – Identification”. What can be done about Negative Core Beliefs? There are several options open to a CBT Therapist, but in my experience as a Psychiatrist and Therapist in Edinburgh I find that the following method is particularly effective.

Cognitive Dissonance

Have you ever stopped to wonder why psychologists, doctors, and others with a Phd use big words? Are they trying to confuse the rest of us?I don’t really think they use it all the time to confuse the rest of us mere mortals, okay not all the time anyway. You and I both know that some use this little bit of skill as a soap box to show the rest of us just how much they really know.Have you ever wondered why there are people who are taken by ‘rip off artists’?
