Introduction to CBT Course (Series 1) 2022 – Part 4 – Day 1 – 29.03.2022

These workshops build on Parts 1 & 2 and aim to give participants an introduction to specific models and ways of working with some problems commonly encountered in clinical practice. The workshops will be skills based and give participants opportunities to practice techniques relevant to the specific problems.

This workshop builds on the Assessment and Formulation workshop and provides an introduction to some of the basic strategies used in CBT. These include agenda setting, identifying and testing negative thoughts, using guided discovery (“Socratic questioning”), goal setting, and the use of behavioural experiments. As with Part 1, the workshop involves extensive role-playing, in order to give participants hands-on experience and feedback of clinical strategies.
