Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a structured form of psychotherapy. It helps people understand the links between thoughts, emotions, body sensations and behaviors. A therapist helps the client identify patterns that maintain distress, then build more useful ways to respond. CBT is not about forced positive thinking. It is about testing thoughts, changing habits and learning practical tools.
CBT may support people dealing with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, insomnia, low self-esteem, stress and burnout. The therapist adapts the work to the client’s goals, symptoms, history and level of stability.
A CBT session often focuses on a recent situation. The therapist and client may map the trigger, automatic thought, emotion, body sensation, behavior and consequence. This makes the cycle clearer. It also shows where a different response may help. For example, a person may learn to reduce avoidance, question catastrophic thoughts, face feared situations gradually, plan helpful activities or reduce reassurance seeking.
CBT often includes between-session practice. These tasks are not meant to create pressure. They are small experiments that help the client test new skills in real life. Exercises may include thought records, behavioral experiments, exposure steps, activity planning, sleep routines, communication practice or problem-solving.
CBT can also work alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness Meditation or Sleep Therapy. Some clients need a very practical plan. Others need more time to explore emotions, beliefs, trauma history or relationship patterns.
Before starting, ask the therapist about their CBT training, session structure, use of exercises, online availability and how progress will be reviewed. CBT does not replace emergency support or medical care when these are needed, but it can offer a clear and practical way to understand symptoms and create sustainable change.
Whether you live in Nice all year or spend part of the year on the Riviera, online sessions make it easier to keep CBT going when you travel. Sessions set clear goals and use practical tools such as thought records, behavioural experiments and exercises between sessions.
A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks, in person in Nice with therapists who receive clients there, or online by secure video. In France, sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly; under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-oriented therapy that looks at how thoughts, emotions and behaviours influence each other. You learn to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to test new ways of acting, often with exercises between sessions. It is one of the most researched forms of psychotherapy.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is often used for concerns such as Anxiety, Burnout, Depression, Insomnia, OCD, and OCD (Obsessive-compulsive disorder).
The therapy page also shows which therapists on MIT currently offer this approach.
A first session usually focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, what you want to change, and whether the therapist’s style feels like a good fit.
You do not need to prepare anything perfect in advance. It is normal to start with questions, uncertainty, or mixed feelings.
This depends on your goals, the complexity of what you are dealing with, and how structured the approach is. Some people use this therapy for short-term focused work, while others stay longer for deeper change.
Availability depends on the therapist. On MIT, you can check the therapist cards and profile pages to see whether online sessions are offered.
Fees vary by therapist. When no live therapist prices are available yet, the usual range for this therapy is around €80–€150 per session.
Start by reading the therapist’s profile, experience, languages, online/in-person availability, and approach. Then check whether the person works with the kind of issue you want help with.
A good fit is often about both expertise and how safe, understood, and comfortable you feel with the therapist.
Yes. MIT profiles can include direct messaging, and therapists can also activate online booking when available.
This helps patients ask practical questions before committing to a first session.
That is very common. You can start by contacting a therapist, explaining what you are struggling with, and asking whether this approach fits your goals.
MIT currently lists 1 therapist for this therapy, so you can compare different profiles before deciding.
It depends on the therapist. Some see clients in person in Nice, others work only online by secure video, and some offer both; the format is indicated on every profile. Online sessions can be a practical option if you live elsewhere on the Côte d’Azur or spend part of the year away.
Yes. Therapists in the network work in English, French and other languages. See the English-speaking and French-speaking therapists in Nice, or check the languages listed on each profile.
Psychiatrists are medical doctors, and their consultations are covered by the Assurance Maladie when you follow the coordinated care pathway. Sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly. Under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed, and many mutuelles or expat insurances refund part of private sessions: check your contract. Therapists give you an invoice you can submit.
Fees are set by each therapist and displayed on their profile. The indicative ranges shown on this site are around €80 to €180 per session for most individual approaches, €120 to €220 for couples or family sessions and €70 to €130 for coaching, career counselling or parenting support. A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks.
Therapy cannot respond to emergencies. If you or someone near you is in danger, call 112 (European emergency number) or 15 (SAMU, medical emergencies). For suicidal thoughts, the national prevention line 3114 is free and available 24/7.
Start with what matters most to you: the language, the topic you want to work on, the approach, in-person or online sessions and the fee, all shown on the profiles. If you would like help choosing, tell us what you need and we will suggest therapists. Your impression after the first session counts too.
