cognitive therapist
Thought pattern specialist
A cognitive therapist is a mental health professional who practices cognitive therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), treating psychological problems by helping patients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns.
The approach assumes that distorted thoughts contribute to emotional distress, and that restructuring those thoughts can relieve symptoms: My cognitive therapist helped me recognize my catastrophic thinking.
