Behavioral activation therapy has its roots in psychotherapy theories such as cognitive therapy and cognitive-behavior therapy. Core principles of behavioral activation therapy include "structure and schedule activities that follow a plan, not a mood," "emphasize a problem-solving empirical approach, and recognize that all results are useful," and "emphasize activities that are naturally reinforcing." One of the purposes of behavioral activation therapy is to "activate" clients into changing behaviors and thinking patterns.
