This course is where you learn to think like a CBT clinician. Before we can do good CBT, we need to understand how it works, both as a scientific model and as a practical way of helping people change. Foundational CBT lays out the key concepts and techniques that underpin CBT, showing how thoughts, emotions, and behaviours interact to maintain distress. It is designed for professionals at any level to understand and apply these ideas confidently.

This training provides the mindset and framework that advanced and specialized CBT courses build on, giving you a strong foundation to use CBT effectively in your own work.

Your copy of 'Doing CBT' will be available for download in the course platform, once your enrollment is finalized.
