Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT: Brain Biases
Did you know that Bluebird Psychology offers Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for children and adolescents ages 6-18? One of the biggest things we work on in CBT is fighting our brain biases or cognitive distortions. Brain biases lead to skewed thinking patterns, often causing us to perceive situations in unrealistic ways. These biases can negatively affect our emotions and behaviours, making it essential to identify and challenge them for healthier, more balanced thinking.
The Importance of Play in Child Therapy
Many child psychologist’s incorporate play in therapy with children. Play is not just a fun activity for children, but it is also an essential part of their development and mental health. Play helps children express themselves, process emotions, and develop social and cognitive skills.
