「認知行為治療」(Cognitive Behavioral Therapy CBT) 是具臨床實證的心理治療,有效處理各種情緒困擾的方法。其的治療元素主要環繞三大範疇,包括: 身體感受、行為和思想。無論是抑鬱、憤怒、或憂慮的情緒,它們都在影響我們的身體感受、行為和思想。同時,我們身體感受、行為和思想也會互相影響,並續漸形成一個惡性循環,令負面情緒持續,演變成難以自然痊癒的情緒困擾。認知行為治療主要從行為或思想方面介入,例如:建立積極健康的方法去面對情緒,減少逃避行為,或改善牛角尖思想,從而打破令情緒困擾持續的惡性循環。
低密度心理治療是針對輕中度情緒困擾人士而設的心理治療。由於他們所需的治療及支援較少,因此一種相對簡單而短期(約五至八節)的心理治療亦能有效處理他們的情緒困擾。另外,低密度心理治療可減少有需要人士接受心理治療的輪候時間,而且避免在輪候過程間所承受衍生負擔。
低密度心理治療以認知行為治療的原則為基礎。它有別於一般心理輔導,著重自主學習。心理健康主任因應您在自助練習時遇到的困難作出解答。

Wellbeing Practitioners are university graduates who have received systematic training in mental health assessment and low-intensity psychological interventions. They are supervised by clinical psychologists and provide services to individuals with mild to moderate mood distress.
The treatment typically consists of 6-8 sessions, each lasting about 45 minutes. Sessions are held weekly or bi-weekly, so the entire treatment period is approximately two to three months.
During the first consultation, the Wellbeing Practitioner will conduct a mental health assessment so that you may understand more about your mood condition. They will provide recommendations and discuss with you whether further services are needed. If appropriate, they will offer short-term, structured psychological interventions. They will use a guided self-help workbook to help you learn and apply emotional management skills in your daily life.
This service uses structured, evidence-based psychological interventions, which are different from supportive counselling. Our Wellbeing Practitioners will guide you step-by-step to understand mental health and teach you how to take care of your emotions. They use a guided self-help workbook to outline clearly the steps and teach you how to apply these skills in your daily life. In this way, you will be equipped to take care of yourself with psychological flexibility and cope with life challenges after completing the treatment.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, is an evidence-based psychotherapy which has shown effectiveness in treating various emotional distress. There are three main components in this theory: physical reaction, behaviour and cognition. Different emotions such as anger, depression or anxiety, infludence these three areas of us. Meanwhile, the three components are interrelated, thus resulting in a vicious cycle of negative emotions. CBT mainly intervene from behavioural or cognitive perspective. For instance, building adaptive ways to cope with psychological distress, reducing avoidance behaviours or absolute thinking can help breaking the vicious cycle.
Low intensity psychotherapy is designed for individuals with mild to moderate psychological distress. As fewer resources are required, usually a simpler and shorter course of therapy (around 5 to 8 sessions) is sufficient to tackle their problems. Also, low intensity psychological intervention helps in reducing the waiting time of receiving psychotherapy.
Low intensity psychological intervention is based on the principle of CBT. Unlike counseling service, the intervention emphasizes self-learning. Wellbeing Practitioners will assist you in tackling the difficulties encountered during self-practice.
The Characteristics of Low Intensity Intervention include:
• the course of intervention is shorter (around 5 to 8 sessions)
• less burden to users, shorter duration per sesion
• use non-traditional methods to communicate (e.g. phone, zoom)
• emphasize self-learning, users need to work on exercises
The practitioners of the two types of interventions receive different professional trainings. They can be applied to clients according to their needs.
