In this episode of the Charles Bonnet Syndrome podcast, host Shaimond delves into Cognitive Appraisal Theory, a psychological framework that explains how our interpretations of events shape our emotional responses. He explains the two stages of cognitive appraisal—primary and secondary—and provides therapeutic techniques such as cognitive restructuring, mindfulness, and several other therapies like CBT, ACT and DBT, which can help individuals, particularly those with CBS, reframe their thoughts and improve emotional wellbeing.
