It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and major life transitions because it emphasizes flexible responses to internal experiences.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and skills for managing mood and daily functioning.
