What defines CBT/REBT is that it focuses on the present, what’s happening in the here and now, rather than looking to the past. REBT argues that at the core of emotional disturbance lies a set of irrational beliefs that people hold about themselves, other people or the world around them.
The focus of the therapy is to identify, question and change these irrational thoughts and encourage a more flexible approach to living that will increase personal satisfaction and wellbeing at home and in the workplace.
Along working at the White Hart Clinic, she works in the corporate world treating professionals focusing on the below:
- Anxiety, social, work and health
- Perfectionism. Determine their self-worth on how well they perform and set unrealistic high standards.
- Imposter syndrome. The Fear of failure, need to be the best, and fear of being found out.
- Stress management. Work related and how to manage it
- Low-self-esteem. Looks at the negatives beliefs we hold and how we think about ourselves I am no good I am not good enough.
