Abstract
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for tinnitus is a collective term for many psychotherapeutic techniques used in combination to address tinnitus-related distress and interference in daily life. In other words, CBT is not one “pure”, discrete, standardised treatment, nor is the goal of CBT to remove or cure a person of their tinnitus. Immediately, this hints at the strengths and challenges associated with this multi-faceted psychological treatment. This chapter provides you, the reader, with an overview of why a psychological treatment such as CBT might be relevant and applicable to tinnitus distress, what it is, the evidence base underpinning it, and future directions in which CBT might develop.
