Özet

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in nursing practice is an evidence-based and patient-centered approach that helps nurses address the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influencing health outcomes. By incorporating CBT principles into daily care, nurses can assist patients in recognizing maladaptive thinking patterns, developing effective coping strategies, and improving self-management skills in various clinical settings. CBT-informed nursing interventions enhance therapeutic communication, reduce psychological distress, and support adherence to treatment plans. This approach aligns with the holistic nursing perspective by integrating psychological and physical care, contributing to improved patient well-being, resilience, and overall quality of life.
