Seek help for a common mental health problem these days, and you may well find yourself referred for cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT. In a 2018 study in Frontiers in Psychiatry, experts argued CBT to be the “gold standard”, or “best standard we have in the field constantly available” in treating common mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.
On the whole, we Britons are not disposed to the idea of “therapy” – it still feels American and somewhat self-indulgent. And yet, an increasing number of us find ourselves in need of emotional direction as we battle the challenges of work, redundancy, relationship breakdown, bereavement, or just the unpredictable ups and downs of midlife and beyond.
