eCBT Mood(c) tries to help people who are feeling down or depressed to feel better by using the scientific principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). eCBT Mood can also be used a uniform, structured adjunctive support intervention for clinical trials of antidepressants or other therapies for depression.

Electronic CBT (eCBT©) has been used both as an adjunct to traditional psychotherapy (involving a therapist and patient), as well as a stand-alone intervention to help people address their problems. eCBT is not replacement for traditional psychotherapy, or for antidepressant or other medications used to treat depression. Instead, eCBT aims to help people learn how to first identify and then to challenge the distorted thinking that fuels depression. By challenging distorted thinking, it is possible to improve mood, and break the downward spiral of negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By systematically tracking daily and weekly depression severity, it is possible to track progress over time, and also share those results with loved ones or professional caregivers.

ABOUT COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY (CBT)

At the foundation of CBT is a simple idea – the things that we think influence our moods and our behaviors. In depression, thinking becomes distorted and dysfunctional, leading to a downward spiral of painful feelings and behaviors. The feelings and behaviors that grow from these distorted thoughts serve to sustain and deepen depression. This painful web of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors is what CBT seeks to help untangle.

CBTs history goes back more than 40 years, to pioneering work done by Dr. Aaron T. Beck and others who developed an empirically-based, short-term, structured psychotherapy for depression. Since that time, it has continually evolved, been refined and expanded by a generation of Clinical Psychologists and other professionals. Today, CBT represents a robust, scientifically proven system of psychotherapy that can be effective in helping people deal with a variety of problems, from depression and anxiety disorders, to coping with chronic pain and substance abuse.

needs a way to go

Having been involved with CBT for a long time, I think this is on the right track, but far from being of true use. Some of the most important aspects of the written CBT exercises are omitted. No place to write rebuttals, doesnt allow for multiple "emotions" or "distortions" to be chosen, and no rating of % of feelings. Alot of the ground work is in this program and solid, it just needs to be improved upon.

Was concerned about privacy/data collection

Company promptly (<24 hrs on a holiday weekend) answered my questions, assured they were not collecting/sharing data, and said they would be adding my concern to their FAQ section. So-Im impressed with the application & the company. Thumbs up!

Inflexible, too limiting in ability to input, too many buttons to go through

Maybe its because Im aware of the CBT method, but I find the many guided buttons annoying. Also, after I spent time writing an entry into the feelings and thoughts log, I find that there is no way to access my full entry when I tried to go back to read it. All I get is a scroll with about 6 words in it with a "..." after it. This might be good for people who dont like to write. For people who like to journal, I highly recommend CBTReferee, which allows journaling, the flexibility to self-insight, and a good organization of your thoughts.

America needs this!

Cbt works, improve app and go viral!

CBT is great, this app is not

I wish I hadnt spent money on this app. Look carefully at the screen shots. That is basically all this app does. Its multiple choice box after box. I really like the CBT concepts but this just isnt something Ill use. My hand made index cards are actually better.

Crashes all the time

App keeps crashing - what good is it if it wont work more than 10 seconds??

eCBT

This is wonderful app, save me from having to do it on paper. I have been doind this on paper since completeing an intensive out patient program. I wish it was also downloadable to to my droid, but until then I shall happily use it on my IPAD.
