		Cognitive therapy or cognitive behavior therapy is a kind of psychotherapy used to treat depression, anxiety disorders, phobias, and other forms of mental disorder.
		Cognitive therapy is often used in conjunction with mood stabilizing medications to treat bipolar disorder.
		The therapy is essentially, therefore, to identify those irrational or maladaptive thoughts that lead to negative emotion and identify what it is about them that is irrational or just not helpful; this is done in an effort to reject the distorted thoughts and replace them with more realistic alternative thoughts.

		Cognitive-behavioral therapy is based on the idea that our feelings are governed by our thoughts about situations, people, and events in our lives and not those things themselves.
		If a person can learn to modify the impulsive behavior they display in situations using this shoot-from-the-hip mentality and wait for the prefrontal cortex to kick in (in other words, think things through), they can modify the effect the situation has on their emotional state and, sometimes, the situation itself in a more positive manner.
		Cognitive-behavioral therapy is therapist directed, and to fully experience the entirety of this approach a person should do so under the guidance of a counselor.

	Cognitive Behavior/Behavioral Therapy, Ellis' REBT Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Anxiety
		For cognitive therapy and cognitive therapists, there is always a cognitive distortion between the perception of a stimulus that is not intrinsically upsetting (like cold, dark, winter) and the upsetting anxiety or depression.
		Cognitive Behavior therapy seems to have potential for alleviating other disturbing emotions than just anxiety (which of course covers all kinds of distinct anxiety, from social anxiety disorder, to anticipatory anxiety, to generalized anxiety disorder) and depression.
		Anxiety disorders respond to therapies such as the cognitive behavior therapy of Albert Ellis, but it is important to stress that the need for a social bond is always there, whether you are an anxiety sufferer, whether you are in therapy, whether you are neither an anxiety sufferer nor a person in therapy.
