Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
for Depression
CBT for chronic migraine management, particularly where stress and anxiety are contributing factors. Helps patients develop coping strategies and reduce the psychological burden of chronic pain.
How it works
CBT addresses the psychological and behavioural factors that perpetuate chronic migraine, including pain catastrophising, avoidance behaviours, and hypervigilance to symptoms. Reduces stress reactivity that lowers the migraine threshold.
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.
