Telehealth Services at Carolan Psychology

Evidence‑Based Treatment for Anxiety, Depression, Stress, and Unhelpful Thinking Patterns

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely researched and effective psychological treatments available. It helps people understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviours — and teaches practical strategies to create meaningful, lasting change. If you’re feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, overwhelmed by worry, or weighed down by low mood, CBT can help you regain clarity and control.

Carolan Psychology provides confidential, Australia‑wide telehealth CBT sessions tailored to your goals, strengths, and challenges.

What Is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)?

CBT is an evidence‑based therapy that focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours. It is structured, practical, and goal‑focused, making it highly effective for a wide range of mental health concerns.

CBT helps you:

• Understand how thoughts influence emotions and behaviour
• Challenge unhelpful thinking patterns
• Build healthier coping strategies
• Reduce avoidance and increase confidence
• Develop long‑term resilience and emotional awareness

CBT is suitable for people from all backgrounds and can be adapted to your pace and needs.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is effective for many concerns, including:

• Anxiety and chronic worry
• Depression and low mood
• Stress and burnout
• Panic attacks
• Low self‑esteem and self‑criticism
• Perfectionism
• Anger and irritability
• Sleep difficulties
• ADHD‑related overwhelm
• Trauma‑related symptoms
• Relationship and communication challenges

CBT is practical, structured, and focused on real‑world change.
