ThinkCBT reviews

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of treatment which has been shown to be effective for many conditions. CBT focuses on challenging a person's thoughts, beliefs and attitudes which may not be helping them and focuses on helping the person to change those behaviours. CBT aims to teach people personal coping strategies which help to solve their current problems, as well as improve longer-term emotional regulation. CBT has been shown to help people with long-term conditions rooted in childhood experiences, as well as short-term problems triggered by recent situations or life events. CBT can be guided (with a therapist) or self-guided (through a programme). ThinkCBT offers therapist-supported CBT, and usually, the treatment course will be 6-8 sessions. This involves setting a goal with a therapist that you get along with and then working through sessions focusing on improving thoughts and behaviours which relate to that specific goal. With ThinkCBT, you will have a free assessment call. If they do not think CBT is right for you at this time, they will say on this call.

ThinkCBT review

Would recommend

I had an abortion in late October and found it quite distressing and needed some support, I contacted ThinkCBT and they were really quick to come back to me with an initial consultation and some appointment options. I was matched with a therapist who I've been working with now for a few months virtually every 2 weeks and I really like the mix between CBT and counselling. I've found the post abortion aftercare in general is quite poor on the NHS, and it can feel quite isolating to not have someone to speak to about my experience - so this really helps me feel less alone and more supported. ❤️

ThinkCBT FAQs

CBT is a great intervention for a range of women's health conditions, however, it can be hard to access therapist-supported CBT through the NHS. Sometimes the waiting lists are long, or it may not be offered to you by your clinician. However, it's a great treatment for people who are struggling, and that includes women at various stages of their lives. This could include: PMS Management of chronic pain People struggling with poor sleep Trying to conceive Perimenopause and menopause symptoms CBT works by helping you understand your thoughts, feelings, and emotions towards the issue you are facing. It then provides you with interventions and techniques to support you to manage these feelings and manage the impact of them on your life.
Book through their online platform. Meet with their care team, to ensure CBT is right for you. Book your first appointment with your accredited practitioner. Make a plan with your practitioner for the number of sessions you need.
CBT is generally a program, focusing on a specific issue. This means it's a time-limited intervention - i.e. it should have an end. ThinkCBT is very clear up front that they don't just want people to book endless sessions through the platform, they want people to have a targetted number of sessions focussed on their goal. ThinkCBT is unique in offering online, telephone, and face-to-face appointments. It only works with accredited practitioners and holds itself to very high standards of care. They also have CBT for couples and children available through the platform, which can be very useful for a variety of issues that a family might be facing.
ThinkCBT may be preferable to the NHS for people who want to choose their practitioner, avoid waiting lists, or simply try CBT for something that a doctor has not recommended.
CBT is a safe intervention, and children and adults can use it. However, it may not be suitable in all situations. The initial call with the ThinkCBT team will help you to understand if CBT is a good intervention in your personal circumstances.
