Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a type of therapy that focuses on changing negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to stress. With CBT, you'll learn to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts, develop more positive coping mechanisms, and improve your problem-solving skills. CBT has been shown to be effective in reducing stress, improving mood, and enhancing overall quality of life in people with chronic illness.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention to the present moment without judgment. This can help you become more aware of your thoughts, feelings, and sensations, and to respond to them in a more skillful way. Mindfulness has been shown to reduce stress, improve sleep, and enhance mood in people with chronic illness.

Acceptance

Acceptance is a key component of coping with chronic illness. It does not mean giving up or resigning yourself to your condition, but rather acknowledging the reality of your situation and finding ways to live a meaningful life despite your illness. Acceptance can help you reduce stress, improve your mood, and build resilience.
