In this weeks episode of The Playful Psychologist podcast, I explore a technique called 'cognitive restructuring.'
Cognitive restructuring is a useful technique for understanding unhappy feelings and moods, and for challenging the sometimes-wrong "automatic beliefs" that can lie behind them. As such, you can use it to reframe the unnecessary negative thinking that we all experience from time to time.
This episode will explore the steps that psychologists can undertake in order to use this technique with their clients.
