    Testimonials from service users

    這兩年CBT過程,我學到的有三件事。

    急救自我
    對於焦慮情緒發作的時候,我能夠慢慢疏理好自己在思想陷阱的謬誤,可以在短時間內恢復過來應付日常生活工作。

    建立自我
    躁鬱病曾經讓我體會一念天堂,一念地獄。在CBT初期治療師鼓勵我去記錄幾個星期情緒起伏,了解每個躁狂和抑鬱的觸發點。我慢慢地了解到自己的周期,就建立起自己對不同事情的情緒反應,修正好在工作、生活、生命裡面的混沌,讓自己能與躁、鬱可以共存。

    活在當下
    現在的我能夠不對過去再執著,不對未來過分焦慮,只要專注今天,真正體現到活在當下的感覺,就是我在CBT裡面最好的成果。

    K 先生

    在成長過程中缺乏自信及自尊,透過輔導員提供一個安全的地方,讓我找回自己

    L 先生

    在姑娘的輔導下,我漸漸提醒自己思考模式,不再怪责自己。而且,學會分析责任歸誰。
    當情緒跌入谷底,我學會冷静地提升自已。

    陳太

    My personal case is rather complicated, and not all the issues will fully resolve on their own. By working with the counselling service at ICT, my mood has substantially improved over time in a safe and manageable manner. The therapist helps me to work through my past painful experiences and to slowly unlearn my defences when faced with certain internal emotions.

    Mr. J

    感謝認知治療學會的輔導員,透過一系列治療輔導,適當地排解我的情緒及幫助我分析認知問題。輔導員很有耐性,以專業角度分析及提供資訊,並且會持續協助我的個案而非一次性的心理輔導。

    再次感謝輔導員的專業輔導。
