Summary

The ALC team firmly believes that how we think and act has a great influence on how we feel. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, popularly referred to as CBT, is a type of psychotherapy that helps us understand that connection and helps us create options to change our behavior and subsequent emotions in a positive way. Since CBT is based on the premise that our thoughts influence our actions and feelings, rather than external events such as people, situations, and circumstances, we are therefore more in control of our consequences than we may be aware.
