Workshop Description
Cognitive behavioral therapy is the most empirically supported form of treatment for multiple psychiatric diagnoses and is widely considered the “gold standard” for treating a variety of problems encountered by consumers of behavioral health services. Most clinicians are familiar with standard CBT, but many practitioners in the trenches get "stuck" when following empirically supported protocol treating symptoms of depression and anxiety that seem to “hang on.”
Leave this chock-full three hour training not only with specific handouts, worksheets, and practical “tools,” but with a deeper schema focused cognitive understanding of how to assess, conceptualize, and treat your patients with depression and anxiety that will transform the way that you work with your clients in your very next session!
Issues related to distorted appraisal, lack of habituation, and disjointed memories are among the areas of focus emphasized in these treatments. This three-hour virtual workshop will explore theoretical constructs of cognitive approaches, present an integrated model emphasizing commonalities in empirically supported treatments, and offer practical strategies for amelioration of symptoms.
Leave this training a more trauma-informed clinician, armed with practical, evidence-based strategies that you can implement in your setting immediately to help your clients decrease PTSD related suffering and improve their quality of life!
