Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psychotherapeutic approach that aims to influence dysfunctional emotions, behaviors and cognitions through a goal-oriented, systematic procedure.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is recommended by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) for the treatment of many mental health conditions. It is therefore one of the most commonly used therapies in the private and statutory sectors. CBT is based on the theory that it's not events themselves that upset us, but the meanings weattach to them.
The home study courses are useful for those who may be working in the statutory or voluntary sectors with those who have mental health issues. Nurses, counsellors, prison officers, probation workers,psychotherapists and other mental health workers may find this course invaluable for useful skills and therapeutic interventions.
On successful completion of the home study courses students will receive a recognised level 4 award (Comparable to working at HND or NVQ Level 4).
