This course provides an introduction to Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which has become one of the main models for counselling in recent years especially in the NHS. Evidence shows it is effective in helping with mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. The two key CBT concepts are that what you think affects how you feel, and that what you do affects how you feel.

Course programme

The course will cover such topics as: using a five-part model; activity monitoring and scheduling; cognitive restructuring; thinking traps, guided discovery and behavioural experiments.

The course will be taught using the aid of handouts and case studies. It will also include discussions and work in small groups. Please bring a pen and make sure you arrive on time as the course covers a lot of material. It would be helpful, but not essential, to have read a primer to CBT such as Greenburger & Padesky, Mind over Mood or Melanie Fennell’s Overcoming Low Self-Esteem.
