The Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Phobias course is intended for students who wish to broaden their knowledge on using CBT with this specific clinical disorder. Though CBT’s techniques taught in introduction courses can be adapted, this course draws a direct link to various techniques to treat Phobias. This knowledge will serve as a jumping off point for students to apply both adapted cognitive and behavioral techniques in their practice.
Students will then learn to conceptualize Phobias and apply this understanding to different treatment techniques. Finally, students will learn about the potential treatment difficulties as well as the ways to prepare and problem solve for such.
