Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) at The Wee Therapy Rooms

At The Wee Therapy Rooms (TWTR), we provide Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.

CBT is a practical and evidence-based form of therapy that explores the connection between our thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and physical sensations. Sometimes, we can find ourselves stuck in unhelpful cycles that keep anxiety, stress, low mood, or self-criticism going. CBT can help identify these patterns and develop healthier, more balanced ways of coping.

Sessions are available in person from our therapy rooms in Bannockburn, Stirling, as well as online throughout the UK.

What is CBT?

CBT cycle showing the connection between thoughts, feelings, behaviours and physical sensations

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is based on the idea that the way we think, feel, and behave is all interconnected.

For example:

  • Anxious thoughts can lead to avoidance
  • Avoidance can increase fear and uncertainty
  • Self-critical thinking can affect mood and confidence
  • Stress can impact sleep, motivation, and relationships

CBT helps you begin to understand these patterns more clearly and work towards meaningful changes in your daily life.

Although CBT is often practical and structured, this approach isn’t always suitable for everybody. At TWTR, we tailor therapy to each client and provide a compassionate, collaborative space where you feel heard, understood, and supported.

The pace of therapy is always collaborative and adapted to what feels manageable for you.

Frequently Asked Questions About CBT

Is CBT only focused on thoughts?

No. While thoughts are an important part of CBT, therapy also explores emotions, behaviours, physical sensations, past experiences, and coping patterns.

Is CBT suitable for anxiety?

CBT is one of the most widely used therapeutic approaches for anxiety-related difficulties and can help people better understand patterns of worry, fear, avoidance, and self-criticism.

How many CBT sessions will I need?

This varies from person to person. Some people benefit from shorter-term work focused on a specific difficulty, while others prefer longer-term therapy to explore deeper patterns and experiences.

What happens during the first CBT session?

The first session is an opportunity to discuss your difficulties, explore what has brought you to therapy, and begin identifying goals for the work ahead. There is no pressure to share anything before you feel ready.

How much is a CBT session at TWTR?

A 50-minute CBT session is £50.
