Holistic health is a comprehensive approach to well-being that considers the whole person—body, mind, spirit, and emotions—rather than just treating specific symptoms or illnesses. It emphasizes balance, self-care, and the interconnectedness of various aspects of life to achieve optimal health. Unlike conventional medicine, which often focuses on diagnosing and treating diseases, holistic health seeks to promote overall wellness and prevent ailments before they arise.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely used and researched forms of psychotherapy. Known for its structured, practical, and results-oriented approach, CBT has helped countless individuals manage mental health challenges and improve their quality of life. Here’s an in-depth look at what CBT is and how it works.

In therapy sessions, CBT is often used in conjunction with other therapeutic interventions. CBT is very effective when individuals have insight about their thoughts and related feelings and behaviors, as well as coping skills development to be able to do something different with those experiences than what they were doing before.
