Cognitive behavioral therapy is a "direct form of psychotherapy based on the interpretation of situations (cognitive structure of experiences) that determine how an individual feels and behaves. It is based on the premise that cognition, the process of acquiring knowledge and forming beliefs, is a primary determinant of mood and behavior. The therapy uses behavioral and verbal techniques to identify and correct negative thinking that is at the root of the aberrant behavior."[1]

The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine considers it a complementary mind-body technique fully accepted as safe and effective.
