Fundamentals of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Location
Online (live on Zoom)
Presenter(s)
Dr. Michela David
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this course will be held virtually, LIVE on ZOOM. Course content will remain the same, as will the interactive format; some live demonstrations will replace role-plays.
This two-day introductory course/workshop offers a practical, hands-on approach to learning basic cognitive behavioural therapy skills, including thought records, the five-part model, agendas and basic elements of Socratic dialogue. These techniques are applicable to the treatment of depression, anxiety and other mental disorders, including psychosis. The skills are also broadly applicable to working with the contextual factors that worsen physical illnesses and recovery from injury. The course emphasizes collaborative techniques, including interactive writing, balancing structure and bond, and goal setting. Join us to acquire some useful skills in a no-fault environment.
The presenter is a Diplomate with the Academy of Cognitive Therapy, and has years of clinical and teaching experience.
