How How do you choose between Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychotherapy, Counselling, Stress Management or EMDR therapy in Manchester? Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (also often called Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT) is very helpful for specific problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a short-term, problem focused psychotherapy; the average number of sessions for CBT treatment is around 15, but of course, everyone is different. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a structured and collaborative psychotherapy and based on clinical research, and each CBT treatment is individually geared to each client. The sessions are in Chorlton, South Manchester. The Counselling and Psychotherapy we offer at Manchester Therapies works deeply with the client's present experiences in the here and now. This approach to Psychotherapy and Counselling is both supportive and challenging and can help to overcome problems and lead to lasting change. The Psychotherapy and Counselling we offer tends to be more long term than a CBT treatment; to effect deep change takes time. An initial assessment for psychotherapy or counselling with Manchester Therapies is offered to help you decide if this type of psychotherapy or counselling is for you.

Stress Management at Manchester Therapies is a further type of Therapy approach; it can be applied to one specific situation, or teach the client how to generally take a more relaxed view of life. Aspects of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychotherapy and counselling may also be used in this approach. If you are confused about whether you would be best to choose counselling, psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), or stress management, do call or e-mail Manchester Therapies and we will be happy to discuss the best therapy option for you. Sometimes this can be decided by phone, sometimes an in person assessment may be better. Counselling, psychotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and stress management are offered within Manchester Therapies by appropriately qualified, insured and experienced therapists. Best wishes with your choice of therapy!
