CBT is considered to be a goal oriented approach that can be efficient in the treatment of many psychological issues anywhere from depression to anxiety to mood swings and behaviors as such (“Aaron Beck,” 2015). CBT has evolved throughout the years and has taken in a wide variety of disciplines, including exposure, art, and brief therapy to name a few. CBT’s goal is to strive to keep clients aware of the present while being open-minded to the past. Rather than reliving past traumatic events, CBT encourages clients to recognize how the past can affect their current thoughts and possible behaviors. (Cully & Teten, 2008). This particular therapy is a type of treatment that is more so focused on changing the negative thought patterns into hale and hearty ones that result in positive change for the clients. Based on many years of personal experience, CBT does not require a person to discover why they have such negative thoughts and patterns. Instead, it is focused on recognizing and considering the process of reflection and putting a stop to the negativity before it starts to take over one’s life. Furthermore, according to Beck, CBT schools depressed clients and helps teach them about their thought patterns to guide them to refocus and seek alternative models to guide them out of that depression and focus
