Breaking the Cycle of Negative Thoughts: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Part 2

This is part two of our Cognitive Behavioral Therapy podcast—be sure to listen to part one first! Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a short-term therapy technique to combat destructive thought patterns that negatively impact our lives. In this second half of his podcast, MarinHealth psychotherapist Edward Vander Clute, LCSW looks at the vicious cycle that develops between negative thinking and self-sabotaging behavior. Isolating yourself from the support of friends and family when you are depressed leads to more distorted thinking and destructive self-criticism. Learn what to do instead.
