How Do Behavioral Experiments Use Disconfirming Evidence? Have you ever wondered how you can challenge unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that hold you back?

You’ll learn how planning and conducting these experiments can reveal whether your assumptions are true or exaggerated. We’ll discuss how paying attention to actual outcomes allows you to see the difference between your expectations and reality. You’ll also discover how reviewing the results with your therapist can help you recognize patterns of thinking that may be distorted or unhelpful. Additionally, we’ll cover how this process encourages curiosity and openness, making it easier to replace negative or false beliefs with more balanced thoughts.
