Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Scientifically Grounded. Individually Effective. Lastingly Helpful. 1180 Wien
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most thoroughly researched and effective approaches in psychotherapy worldwide. It draws on the latest scientific findings from psychology, medicine, and neuroscience, and is continuously being developed further. Its effectiveness is supported by numerous studies – for mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders, depression, OCD, and eating disorders, as well as addiction, personality disorders, and neurological conditions. It has also shown positive effects in managing physical complaints such as chronic pain and tinnitus.
What makes CBT special is its versatility and practical orientation. It draws on a wide range of innovative methods tailored individually to your needs. Its central approach: you learn to better understand your patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaviour, to break unhelpful structures, and to develop lasting strategies for change.
Modern approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based methods (MBCT, MBSR), and metacognitive approaches go beyond classical techniques. They help you find a new, healthier way of relating to thoughts and emotions, rather than simply trying to control or change them.
Transparency and personal responsibility are central:
You are actively involved in the therapy process and receive valuable tools that you can also apply in everyday life. This creates lasting self-help for a self-determined, fulfilling life.
