Cognitive behavioral therapy is based on the idea
that our thoughts and our interpretations of events greatly influence our
moods. Therapists teach clients to listen to their negative internal dialogs
and to use less depressive "self-talk." The emphasis is on changing thoughts
and actions, not on understanding their origins. Getting Your Life Back and
Self-Coaching are both based on this approach. View
