What is this workshop about? One of the key principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is that it is crucial to help clients see the impact of thinking on emotions. Biased thinking patterns can lead to low mood, high anxiety, low self esteem, anger or a range of other psychological challenges. These cognitive patterns are also crucial in maintaining psychological disorders such as depression or GAD. Key to many CBT interventions is to help the client challenge their own thought processes and break the vicious circle of biased thinking and negative affect. This workshop will look in detail at the practical techniques which can help clients overcome these patterns of thinking which drive emotional reactions and behavioural avoidance or overreaction. Key skills to help clients replace dysfunctional thought structures with more effective, balanced perspectives will be at the heart of the workshop. The workshop will include live demonstrations by Prof McGhee of some of the most crucial techniques. There will also be a case study for participants to review and discuss. Ticket price includes all slides and handouts. Key Topics (indicative) KEY CONCEPTS The role of beliefs in maintaining psychological distress Negative Automatic Thoughts Unhelpful Thinking Styles Unhelpful Rules Unhelpful Assumptions Core Beliefs KEY SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES Challenging Thought Structures Common Errors to avoid Behavioural Experiments in Cognitive Restructuring Mindfulness and Cognitive Restructuring Imagery and Cognitive Restructuring Metaphor and Cognitive Restructuring SUMMARY and NEXT STEPS What have previous delegates said about similar workshops?
