Definition: Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is a technique that can be used to help people better understand the thoughts and feelings that lead to potentially problematic behaviors. CBT has a range of uses, but it can be particularly effective when treating phobias, anxiety, additions, and depression.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) (This is a newer version of CBT.)

These are the elements:
1. Mindfulness
2. Interpersonal Effectiveness
3. Distress Tolerance
4. Emotion Regulation
Lots of current therapists use some aspect of DBT.
Here is a book.
