CBT: A guide for helping children in Therapy

One of the most valuable lessons we can bequeath is helping children become aware of how thoughts can influence emotions and behavior. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can help children reframe how they identify, interpret, and evaluate their emotional and behavioral reactions to negative experiences. Acknowledging that emotions and behaviors can be controlled and managed is empowering. During this crucial developmental stage, it can improve self-control, emotion regulation, coping skills, and emotional awareness.
