 Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a short-term,
problem-focused psychosocial intervention.
Generic CBT skills provide a readily
accessible model for patient assessment and management and can
usefully inform general clinical skills in everyday practice.
This module will help you understand the role
of CBT in general adult psychiatry, enabling you to
start helping patients and/or their carers to look at their
difficulties from a cognitive behavioural perspective.
This module will help you to answer the
following questions:
- What is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)?
- How can I use CBT in my everyday practice?
- What is the role of thoughts and behaviours in CBT?
- What interventions are used during a course of CBT?
- When should I refer someone for CBT?
- What happens when during a course of CBT?
