2. CBT
CBT is a psychotherapeutic approach that is currently very popular owing to its high success rate coupled with its relatively low cost and easy administration. CBT focusses on teaching patients to better deal with the thoughts and emotions that lead to depression, stress and other mood disorders/mental health conditions.
CBT is thus a highly powerful tool and more recently has been shown to be effective in treating psoriasis by preventing stress which can trigger flare-ups. It is particularly effective when combined with other medications and lifestyle interventions.
