Table of Contents

    A CBT self-help course is an online solution that lets you learn Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools for personal use — helping you replace harmful behaviors and thought patterns with healthier habits, at your own pace.

    What Does a CBT Self-Help Course Look Like?

    A structured course typically spans 12 weeks and includes:

    • Weekly lessons that build on each other
    • Explanatory videos breaking down key concepts
    • Downloadable tools and worksheets
    • Weekly practice exercises
    • A supportive community of fellow learners

    The structure is important. CBT isn't just about understanding concepts — it's about practicing them consistently until they become second nature.
