What will this workshop involve?

This workshop is a hands on, experiential practical session focusing on 3 key skills essential to effective CBT practice.
For each of the three skills there will be a short overview followed enabling participants to work to practice these skills followed by supportive, constructive non-judgmental feedback.
With breaks and opportunities for reflection, the session will be a distintive opportunity for you to brush up on key skills.
For each skill we will examine (i) Agenda Setting (ii) Visualisation (iii) Working on Core Beliefs.
This will help participants firm up on key techniques, tackle challenges and expand their application.
The workshop is open to all CBT therapists or therapists using CBT in their practice whether in training, newly qualified or experienced.
Due to the participatory nature of the workshop places are limited to 12.

Much better than I anticipated. Talks through all parts in a way that makes it very easy to understand. Very grateful to have found these webinars!
I am a trainee CBT therapist. I found this session incomparably illuminating in terms of its ability to draw together the various levels of conceptualisation, and how it is paramount to bringing the therapy to life for our clients.
