Most therapists using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) haven't unlocked its full potential.

Perhaps you’ve tried cognitive restructuring worksheets, but clients resist accepting them...

Maybe your clients with depression lack the motivation for behavioural activation...

Or you don’t quite know where to start when crafting an exposure hierarchy and clients with anxiety find these either too easy or too difficult....

As a therapist, it’s frustrating to see your clients struggle despite your best efforts, leaving you questioning if there are more effective ways to utilize CBT to truly make a difference in their lives.

During this advanced training, founding director of the Anxiety Treatment and Research Clinic at St. Joseph’s Healthcare, Dr. Martin Antony, a world-renowned expert in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, will give you the tools you need to confidently and effectively apply CBT strategies to almost any clinical setting.

During this 2-Day training, you will walk away with:

  • Practical demonstrations with essential CBT techniques like cognitive reappraisal, exposure therapy, and behavioral activation.
  • Effective case conceptualization skills for treating anxiety, depression, anger, insomnia, and more in both adults and children.
  • Motivational interviewing skills and strategies for overcoming treatment resistance.
  • Cutting-edge insights from a leading expert to enhance your therapeutic effectiveness and client outcomes.

Join us to transform your therapeutic approach and achieve breakthrough results with the power of CBT.
