Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): The objective of CBT in tinnitus therapy is to identify negative behaviours, beliefs, and reactions to tinnitus and to assist the individual in substituting appropriate and positive thoughts. The goal of our CBT program is to reduce negative emotional reactions, stress, and attention given to tinnitus and to ensure that tinnitus no longer negatively affects life’s activities.
