An Intro to CBT

What Is CBT? A Clear Introduction to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy


Listen Later

Curious what CBT is and how it can help you manage thoughts, feelings, and behaviours? This episode makes it simple, practical, and memorable.

These audios give you a fun, engaging, banter-style listening experience in a way that brains love - it is 'therapy as learning' - start a fascinating journey that teaches life-changing skills.

In this lively CBT explainer, Veronica Walsh’s core ideas are broken down into easy-to-grasp concepts you can actually use – starting today. You’ll learn why CBT is one of the most effective tools for managing anxiety, stress, and everyday emotional challenges.

Key takeaways:

  • How thoughts, physiology , emotions, and behaviours interact
  • Why awareness and self-regulation are central to change
  • How to respond differently to anxiety rather than fight it
  • Practical steps – easy to understand, remember and apply

This episode is ideal if you’re new to CBT, curious about therapy, or looking for practical psychological tools you can apply in everyday life.
