You’ll learn how to compassionately treat depression using highly effective cognitive and behavioral interventions either independently or together, as well as ‘third wave’ strategies embracing compassion, mindfulness, acceptance and emotion. 

Along the way you’ll discover how to identify and assist your clients to become more flexible with unhelpful thoughts and beliefs, and encourage them to engage in enjoyable and rewarding activities with easy-to-learn interventions and experiential techniques.

Step-by-step you’ll learn how to move through difficult moments and stuck points in therapy, and help clients take action to move forward into a life they find truly worthwhile. 

You’ll also experience sensitively-applied therapy demonstrations with diverse populations and gain confidence to work with a range of behaviors, beliefs and emotions that can present as part of depression such as substance use, lack of self-worth and anger.
