This course provides a comprehensive, step-by-step approach to identifying and overcoming cognitive distortions using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques. Whether you struggle with negative self-talk, perfectionism, or anxiety, this course will equip you with practical tools to reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop a healthier mindset.Starting with an introduction to cognitive distortions, you will learn how these patterns develop and their effects on mental health. Each module explores a specific distortion, such as polarized thinking, overgeneralization, catastrophizing, and mind reading, through real-life examples and case studies. You will discover how distorted thinking influences emotions and decision-making, whether in personal relationships, academic settings, or the workplace.Using CBT-based tools, including thought records, reality-check exercises, and mindfulness strategies, you will learn how to challenge irrational beliefs and develop cognitive flexibility. The course also covers advanced topics such as the control fallacy, fairness fallacy, and the impact of "should" statements.By the end of this course, you will have built a strong foundation in CBT techniques, allowing you to apply these skills in everyday life. You will complete a final project where you analyze your own cognitive distortions and apply the learned strategies to develop long-term resilience.
