The main aim of this APS-endorsed comprehensive 8-week course is to provide clinicians and support staff with a sound understanding of MiCBT principles and the necessary skills to implement them confidently in their clinical work.

Course content will involve practical and experiential work and include:
- core and advanced skills in mindfulness practice
- theoretical fundamentals of mindfulness approaches
- incorporating the complex foundations (locus and dynamics) of behaviour maintenance and extinction to improve ecological validity and therapeutic efficacy
- engaging the client in the MiCBT treatment plan
- skills to implement the four stages of MiCBT with patients diagnosed with most DSM-IV Axis and Axis II disorders
- Mindfulness-based relapse prevention strategies
- real case demonstrations on video and in a master class format will be included
