Combining behavioral and cognitive therapies while behavioral and cognitive therapies were developed

00:00:07,620 --> 00:00:13,200
somewhat independently and in practice, they are complementary.

00:00:13,710 --> 00:00:20,470
Indeed, it wasn't long after their development that their two students were integrated into CBT.

4
00:00:21,210 --> 00:00:28,110
This integration is good news for people in need of treatment and who can now receive a more complete

5
00:00:28,110 --> 00:00:29,190
treatment package.

6
00:00:32,730 --> 00:00:40,270
Combining these therapies also helps us see how our thoughts, feelings and behaviors fit together.

7
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:49,350
For example, when we're feeling highly anxious, we tend to have thoughts about danger and those thoughts

8
00:00:49,620 --> 00:00:51,790
will increase our anger and anxiety.

9
00:00:52,350 --> 00:01:00,300
These thoughts and feelings in turn, will make us more likely to avoid what we fear, which will reinforce

10
00:01:00,300 --> 00:01:01,280
our anxiety.

11
00:01:01,830 --> 00:01:07,280
Once we understand these connections, it's easier to find ways to feel better.
