In counseling, what does reframing mean?
The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) technique known as reframing is used to recognize automatic thoughts and swap them out for more sensible ones. Reframing is the process of altering how a thought is presented so that it retains its core meaning but is more likely to support resolution efforts, according to the definition.Reframing is a powerful skill to possess because it can cause immediate changes in our emotions regarding a situation and make us feel more clear-headed, resourceful, in control, and upbeat about our situation.The two primary types of frames used in reframing are context and content frames.Finding a more positive interpretation, perspective, or experience of unexpectedly negative events, concepts, or even ideas that you don’t like is the main goal of cognitive reframing.
