Join CBT expert and author, John Ludgate, Ph.D., and learn advanced CBT techniques to treat chronic or recurring depression and anxiety. Clients with a high relapse potential or chronic depression and anxiety are very complex and challenging to treat, and Dr. Ludgate will teach you special augmented CBT strategies which can easily be incorporated into your everyday practice.
This program will address state-of-art interventions and adaptations in CBT for complex cases and will focus on client, therapist and therapy factors which can interfere with therapy’s effectiveness. Specifically, a model will be offered which helps to formulate from a cognitive behavioral perspective the factors involved in chronicity or in the process of relapse. Assessment and conceptualization skills which can aid treatment planning will be examined. Interventions which target chronic and recurrent problems will be described in detail with case examples.
