“How long does it take for cognitive behavioral therapy to work?”

CBT is a new solution for insurance companies to cut their expenses. CBT does not heal. It changes behavior, but it doesn't heal. If you were put in daycare before the age of three, you would have separation anxiety, now called anxiety as an adult. Thus, you have unprocessed fears of abandonment. Figure out what unprocessed fear resides within. You might have to meditate on the way you feel in order to get clear. When you finally get clear, see if you can scream the fear out of your body (into a pillow) or cry it out. Anxiety is a very old unprocessed emotion. Then, check to see what is causing you anxiety now. Does it make things better or worse. If you live in fear over things that most people would just handle, then you might have to find the courage to live the life you want to live and do what you must and then reap.

Hello. Just start CBT as soon as possible. It is like to learn to drive the car - you have to acquire skills in a short period of time and then become better and better driver over time - comes with the practice. It's not just enough to know the skills - it's not a rocket science and everyone can get it. The secret in doing it every day - like a driving ( not enough to know theoretically how to drive, need to drive every day to become a good driver). Good luck! You can do it.

It depends on the skill of the therapist and what the problem is. For depression/anxiety, about 3 weeks.

Research has proven that CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) has positive results for treating a wide variety of mental disorders. Traditional CBT usually requires up to 12 to 18 weeks but another option might be intensive CBT which can give faster results but requires a more specialized therapist who is trained to apply this therapy. Sometimes a combination of medications and CBT can work more effectively than taking either alone. A psychiatrist can help to find which method will deliver the best results.
