This is an introductory one-day training course which provides an opportunity to learn about CBT approaches to physical health care and rehabilitation. The focus is on adults presenting with physical health conditions and disabilities (e.g. chronic pain). However, wider applications of CBT in physical and mental health are also covered.
Who will Benefit?
This course is primarily suitable for health professionals, therapists, and care staff working in physical health care and rehabilitation settings including, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, nurses, counsellors, psychologists, dieticians and doctors. However, staff working mainly in mental health settings who are already familiar with CBT may see this course as useful refresher training.
