In this episode of The CBT Coaching Podcast, Dr. Barry M. Gregory explores how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can help you break the cycle of worry, stress, and anxiety that many of us face daily. Whether you’re dealing with work deadlines, financial pressures, or concern for a loved one’s health, this episode offers practical tools to regain calm and control.

Dr. Gregory explains the differences between worry, stress, and anxiety, and how they interact to create a loop of negative thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Using the CBT framework, he introduces actionable techniques like Worry Time, challenging catastrophic thinking, relaxation strategies, and grounding exercises to help you manage and reduce these overwhelming feelings.

The episode also features a compelling case study of Alex, who is overwhelmed with anxiety and worry about his father’s declining health. Through CBT techniques, Alex learns how to reframe his thoughts, address unhelpful behaviors, and prioritize his well-being while supporting his father.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a toolkit of CBT-based strategies to manage worry, stress, and anxiety better — and start creating a more balanced, resilient life.

The Thoughts Aren’t Facts episode of the CBT Coaching Podcast explores the foundational CBT concept that not all thoughts are true or helpful. It introduces common cognitive distortions like all-or-nothing thinking, overgeneralization, catastrophizing, personalization, and mind reading, providing relatable examples for each. Dr. Barry M. Gregory offers practical strategies to test and challenge these distorted thoughts, such as examining the evidence, considering other perspectives, and using tools like the “What’s the Worst That Could Happen?” test. By shifting to more balanced and accurate thinking, listeners can reduce anxiety, improve relationships, and make better decisions. This episode emphasizes the power of reframing thoughts as an opportunity for personal and professional growth.
