d. Cognitive-behavioral therapy
d
Feedback to correct answer: Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on the relationship between how a client thinks (cognitions) and the re-sulting problematic feelings and behaviors. CBT is grounded in the belief and evi-dence that how we think and interpret our world has a direct impact on how we experience our internal and external worlds. This direct connection between thinking, feeling, and behavior dictates that if we can change the way we think about things, examine faulty beliefs and assumptions, and restore them to healthy perspectives, then we will feel better about ourselves and our relationship to the world, and our behaviors will be more in line with our life desires and aspi-rations.
