Part 1 is a two day training  that will cover the Theoretical & Therapeutic Foundations of CBT as well as evidence based CBT interventions for youth “internalizing” disorders including depression, suicide prevention, various anxiety disorders and trauma/PTSD.  The Theoretical & Therapeutic Foundations component will include topics such as how to formulate a CBT Case Conceptualization, the art of Socratic Questioning and Cognitive Restructuring with youth, how to involve parents in the child’s treatment, and how to integrate more recent “Third Wave” CBT therapies such as DBT, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Positive Psychology and Polyvagal Theory & Therapy into an integrated treatment approach.  .  Methods to involve parents in the youth’s treatment will be addressed. Attendees will have the opportunity for skill building through didactic instruction and various immersive learning opportunities such as role play and small group application of treatment skills.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe the fundamental theoretical and therapeutic principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and more the recently developed Third Wave approaches including their theoretical foundation and research evidence base.

  6. Use methods to enhance the youth’s ability to overcome the impact of trauma.
