About CBT for Panic Attacks

CBT for Panic Attacks is one of the most effective ways of overcoming the emotional distress caused by anxiety related conditions.

CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and was developed by Aaron Beck in the 1960’s who noticed that people’s inner-thoughts were often much more significant than the things that they said out loud during therapy.

He called these inner-thoughts cognition and argued that the way that people think about their experiences links directly to the emotions that they then feel. In this sense, emotional experiences are a form of behaviour.

These ideas form the central concept of CBT which states that:

The way people think determines the way that they feel.

In the case of Panic Attacks (which is the human reaction to overwhelming stress) the emotions that panic-stricken people feel are the direct result of what they think their experiences mean.

How does CBT for Panic Attacks work?

Normally a programme of CBT for Panic Attacks takes place over a period of 10 to 20 weeks with an hour long session once per week.

Firstly, because the way you think about your day-to-day experiences is determined by your core beliefs, the early sessions of CBT for Panic Attacks involve exploring and measuring these beliefs.

Secondly, once you are able to uncover your core beliefs, your thoughts about certain experiences will make more sense.

Thirdly, by understanding how you have made sense of your experiences in the past you can then begin to make changes to your thoughts and beliefs in order to create new, and more useful, emotional outcomes.

CBT for Panic Attacks builds upon the 5 core CBT principles developed by Aaron Beck.

How many sessions of CBT for Panic Attacks will I need?

Whilst this is a diificult question to be precise about, most people will be able to overcome their emotional distress in around 10 sessions.

However, because CBT for Panic Attacks is always tailored to your own individual needs and circumstances, getting the outcome that you want may sometimes require more sessions.

If you have been suffering Panic Attacks problems for many years and your level of anxiety is quite high, then in all likelihood, you can reasonably expect to take a bit longer to get where you want to be.

Our Tranceformental CBT for Panic Attacks programme is based on 10 sessions delivered over 10 weeks and uses an online learning platform for you to develop greater self-awareness and knowledge in the days between sessions.
