    This course offers the opportunity to gain an understanding of basic CBT skills and to begin to use these to enhance existing clinical practice. Participants will gain a greater understanding of the emotional reactions to physical illness and the role CBT can have in reducing distress, anxiety and depression. Training will involve a combination of didactic teaching, experiential learning, demonstration and discussion.

    Unlike some forms of CBT training, which require practitioners to have a vast knowledge of specialist protocols, this course looks at the person as a whole (rather than as a symptom) and teaches a model that is practically applicable to a broad range of emotional and behavioural based problems.

    While this course does include a standard teaching approach, appropriate for studying personal experience as understood in CBT theory and practice, the teaching is less about the dissemination of facts, and more about developing an understanding of people, relationships, and the ineffable mysteries of the human psyche.

    This Introduction to Cognitive Behaviour Therapy contains elements from all the main schools of psychology, and if you are less than fully satisfied with the course, claim a full refund within 30 days of initial purchase.
