Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) was developed by Aaron Beck and Alber Ellis to assist clients in their healing journey by focusing on cognitive appraisals of events in order to better understand their reactions.  This course reviews the basic foundational information and a few simple tools for clinicians to implement quickly.  Students will learn how CBT developed, why it works, and how we practice in this course. This will serve as a good foundation to build upon for clinicians new to CBT.

• Identify and learn the aspects of the cognitive triangle as they apply to CBT and how ACT and DBT has built from that base.

• Identify and learn how core beliefs impact the psyche of the individual.
