Although family physicians rely primarily on pharmacotherapy to treat depression and anxiety, research and clinical experience suggests that many patients experience only partial relief and still remain vulnerable to relapse if they stop medication. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is the most empirically supported psychological treatment for anxiety and depression and also has been shown to prevent relapse. In the hands-on, skills oriented interactive workshop, participants will acquire basic CBT tools that they can integrate into their own general clinical practice.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the principles of CBT in their patients.
- Formulate patient psychological difficulties using a cognitive model.
- Implement basic cognitive and behavioural interventions for anxiety.
