work with you to analyze your thoughts feelings and habits and the various ways they converge and actually what they’re going to be wanting to do is look at how your thoughts might be contributing to hard feelings so are your ideas helping to sustain a level of anger or sadness or fear and are there ways that perhaps you can consider scenarios or individuals or yourself in a different way in order to feel a little bit better so if you’re considering counseling I highly encourage you to check out working with a CBT therapist due to the fact that it’s a reliable and evidence-based way of handling a variety of issues and issues if you’re working with the CBT therapist you’re going to discover that the work is very collective and it’s actually a group method to taking a look at the problems that you have problem with the other thing that individuals have perhaps a little bit of problem getting utilized to or accepting with CBT therapy is that you will get homework yes it’s much like being back in school therefore a great
