Overview

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is a structured, evidence-based form of psychotherapy that focuses on the relationship between an individual's thoughts, emotions, physical responses, and behaviours. It focuses on replacing self-defeating Schemas & Automatic Negative thoughts with rational and evidence based perspective. CBT has empirical evidence for implications in effective treatment of clinical depression, Anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD.

Foundational training in CBT is essential for skill enhancement in CBT based case evaluation & formulation, planning and structuring a CBT session and to begin developing competence in its application.

Providing a bridge between theoretical knowledge and clinical practice, a preliminary training is particularly valuable for students of Clinical Psychology, Applied Psychology, Counselling Psychology, and related mental-health disciplines and for the counselors and professionals in practice.
