Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Adults
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is an evidence-based, short-term therapy shown to decrease symptomology and improve mood and daily functioning by teaching clients self-coaching skills to identify, evaluate, and modify unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns. This course will provide Master's level clinicians with an understanding of the Cognitive Behavioral model that will include a brief history, populations most commonly treated, basic empirical research, essential components and structure, and commonly used techniques. Participants will learn some essential skills that can be integrated into a CBT treatment plan or used as standalone interventions that they can immediately incorporate into their practice.

Learning Objectives:

1. Participants will be able to articulate basic theory and key components of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

2. Participants will learn effective ways to socialize clients to the model and gain "buy in".

4. Participants will be familiarized with skills to manage anxiety and worry.
