Therapy has a profound impact on the brain, promoting neuroplasticity and restructuring neural pathways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), for example, can help individuals reframe negative thought patterns, post operative care at home strengthening positive neural connections. Therapy can also reduce activity in the brain's stress centers, like the amygdala, while enhancing activity in areas responsible for emotional regulation and problem-solving, such as the prefrontal cortex. Over time, therapy helps the brain adapt, reduce symptoms of anxiety or depression, and improve overall mental well-being.
