Cog&Dialect Behaviour Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT) are
empirical evidence-based modalities that have proven to be effective in treating several
mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and trauma. In this
course students learn how CBT helps individuals explore ways to counteract
unwanted cognitions, emotions and behaviours. With a focus on mindfulness, students
will also explore how DBT prepares individuals to manage high emotional arousal.
Throughout the course, students learn and practice how to structure therapy
sessions, case formulations as well as self- reflective strategies to maintain and improve
a strong therapeutic alliance.
