Therapy isn’t about instant transformation — it’s about consistent, gentle progress. Every insight, every conversation, every skill you practise builds towards feeling calmer, clearer, and more in control.

Whether you're starting CBT for the first time or continuing your journey, remember that growth often happens in the small moments you don’t notice right away.

✨ Be patient with yourself.
✨ Celebrate the little wins.
✨ Keep showing up — it makes a difference.

Ever wondered what actually happens in a CBT session? You're definitely not alone — many people feel unsure or nervous before starting therapy, and that’s completely normal.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a structured, collaborative approach that helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Your first session is all about getting to know your therapist, exploring what’s been going on for you, and setting clear, achievable goals together.

Swipe through to see a simple, step-by-step breakdown of what you can expect in a CBT session — from the first conversation to planning helpful strategies you can use in everyday life.

✨ Remember, CBT is always centred around you. You set the pace, you guide the direction, and you stay in control.

Maybe this year didn’t look like ticking every box or achieving every goal. But success can also be found in the small moments: choosing to try again, showing kindness, getting through the day when it felt hard, or asking for support.

At CBT Professionals, we help you redefine success in a way that honours your wellbeing, not just your output. Our psychologists work with clients to overcome perfectionism, manage stress and build a more balanced, compassionate perspective.

✨ If you’re ready to show up for yourself, we’re here to support you.

If you needed this reminder today, take a breath.
You are more than your productivity, your to-do list, or your achievements. Your value exists simply because you do.

At CBT Professionals, our psychologists support clients in challenging perfectionism, breaking self-critical thinking patterns and learning to practise self-compassion. You don’t have to earn your worth — but you can learn to believe it.

Feeling that end-of-year pressure creeping in? 💭
If you’re caught in the ‘I didn’t do enough this year’ spiral, you’re not alone. This time of year can bring up guilt, self-comparison, and pressure to measure your worth by productivity.

At CBT Professionals, our psychologists can help you break free from unhelpful thinking patterns and reconnect with what truly matters. You *have* done more than you think — and it’s okay to slow down.

🌿 Support is here when you’re ready.

The lead-up to December can feel like a race — end-of-year deadlines, social gatherings, financial pressures, and family expectations all piling up at once. While we often power through on autopilot, our bodies and minds have ways of telling us when it’s too much.

👉 Constant fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest.
👉 Snapping at loved ones over small things.
👉 Struggling to concentrate or stay organised.
👉 Saying “yes” to everything even when you want to say “no.”
👉 Feeling guilty for needing downtime.

These aren’t signs of weakness — they’re gentle warnings that you may be heading toward burnout. 💙

The good news? Overwhelm isn’t inevitable. With the right strategies and support, you can reclaim December as a calmer, more balanced month. Our psychologists in Gold Coast and Brisbane are here to help you manage stress, set boundaries, and find space for yourself during the holidays. 🌿

Silence can feel like the safest option — especially when you’re not used to opening up. But in reality, holding everything in often makes stress, worry, and low mood feel heavier over time.

Many people stay silent because:
• they don’t want to burden others
• they’re unsure how to express what they feel
• they’ve learnt that talking is “weak”
• they’re afraid of being judged

But talking — even a little — helps release pressure, builds connection, and creates space for support.

If silence has been feeling heavy lately, that’s a sign you don’t have to carry everything alone. Our psychologists can help you make sense of your thoughts, understand your emotions, and take steps towards feeling lighter.

20/11/2025

The holiday season often brings excitement — but it can also bring a wave of stress and expectation that leaves us drained. The key to avoiding December overwhelm is to take small, intentional steps now that protect your wellbeing later.

✨ Here are 3 ways to start:

🫧 Set clear boundaries — it’s okay to say “no” to events or requests that leave you exhausted. Protect your energy.

🫧 Plan with flexibility, not perfection — schedules help but allow room for rest and change. Not everything has to be done perfectly.

🫧 Create a realistic budget — financial stress is one of the biggest triggers during the holidays. Setting limits now can help you enjoy the season without anxiety later.

These might sound simple but putting them into practice early can completely shift how December feels. You don’t have to go through the holiday stress cycle on your own.

Our compassionate team of psychologists in Gold Coast and Brisbane can help you build personalised coping strategies and emotional support to get through the season feeling calmer, lighter, and more present. 🌿
