Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to various mental health issues. It is a problem-focused approach that aims to help individuals understand how their thoughts, feelings, and actions are interconnected and how they can be changed to improve their mental health and well-being.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is a treatment option for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder who have other mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder.

Cognitive behavioral therapy has two main parts. the Cognitive component helps children change how they think about a situation, whereas the Behavioral component helps children change how they react to a situation.
