Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
for Depression
CBT is a structured psychological therapy that identifies and challenges negative thought patterns contributing to depression, replacing them with more balanced ways of thinking and behaving.
How it works
Targets the cognitive triad of depression — negative views of self, world, and future — through systematic thought challenging, behavioural activation, and skill building.
What to watch for
Requires commitment to practice between sessions. Most effective when delivered by a trained therapist. Available via Medicare-subsidised Mental Health Care Plan.
