What is the theory behind this Cognitive behavioural (CBT) Art Therapy Worksheets?
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy aims to identify maladaptive thinking patterns, faulty beliefs and learned unhelpful behaviours that contribute to emotional and behavioural disturbances. Combining CBT with Art Therapy is an effective way to allow individuals to identify the patterns of their cognitive processes as expressed in their art.
