CBT has its roots in ancient Stoic philosophy, especially Epicrete, who discovered that our thoughts, not situations, influence our emotions.
Cognitive behavioral therapy as it is known today was created by Aaron T. Beck and Albert Ellis in the 1980s, combining behavioral and cognitive approaches.
Cognitive behavioral therapy has proven clinical effectiveness in the treatment of depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, OCD, PTSD, sleep disorders, eating disorders, conduct disorders, addictions, chronic pain...
The third wave of cognitive behavioral therapies, such as schema therapy, is great for treating people with personality disorders.
Today, there are many therapeutic schools within CBT. In addition to schema therapy, these include: dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, Cognitive behavioral hypnotherapy (CBH), mindful cognitive therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and Self-Compassion.
Evidence suggests that the addition of hypnotherapy as an adjunct to CBT improves treatment efficacy for a variety of clinical issues. The use of CBT in conjunction with hypnotherapy may result in greater treatment effectiveness. A meta-analysis of eight different researches revealed “a 70% greater improvement” for patients undergoing an integrated treatment to those using CBT only.
