Worksheets help us map our patterns, understand our automatic thoughts and challenge unhelpful patterns.  Click on the button below to access the worksheets that I use in therapy as well as of the course materials that I have developed while facilitating CBT groups for anxiety and depression.  

Relaxing at Home
