Description

Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness strategies in order to help individuals better understand and manage their thoughts and emotions in order to achieve relief from feelings of distress. Though originally developed to address recurrent depression, MBCT may be beneficial to people seeking treatment for a wide range of mental health concerns. In this training, we will explore the goals of MBCT, compare and contrast with other popular psychotherapies, and review and implement practical strategies that can be implemented with any patient.

Upon completion of this training, participants  will be able to:

• Define the Goals of MCBT
• Compare and contrast MBCT to other 3rd Wave Psychotherapies
• Implement Practical Strategies and Exercises Used Within MBCT Sessions

This course qualifies for 1.5 CE hours of General Skill Building and Evidence-Based training.
