Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has proven to be effective in the treatment of various psychopathologies and emotional and relationship problems, as well as an adjuvant in the medical treatment of diseases and pain management (Beck, 2021, Cuijpers et al., 2019, Hoffman et al., 2012). His cognitive, emotional, and behavioral interventions offer a clear and structured proposal to work with patients in a framework of learning and collaboration. Its effectiveness lies not only in the implementation of said interventions but also in the development of the therapeutic relationship that allows the expression of beliefs, emotions, and behaviors associated with the condition or reason for consultation of the patients, and that is essential in the process. of change and development of the patient (Beck et al., 1979). This text presents elements of the therapeutic relationship that research and various authors have indicated as necessary for the proper therapist-patient relationship and the achievement of therapeutic success.
