Catch It, Check It, Change It

Cognitive therapy is helpful for anyone, regardless of their age. Explaining this type of therapy to kids and teens can be done using the 3C’S, namely: catch it, check it, change it. This three-step process starts with noticing a negative thought and ends with replacing that thought with something helpful and realistic. This 3C’s wall art is a wonderful addition to any setting where parents, teachers, and mental health professionals support young people. You can use it as a resource to start a discussion on cognitive therapy as a whole and some helpful techniques.
