 Event

Mindfulness-integrated CBT: A short introduction

 Format

2-hour workshop

 Presenter

Dr Bruno A. Cayoun, PsyD, MAPS, CCLIN School of Psychology, University of Tasmania and The MiCBT Institute (TAS)

Description

A decade of careful research has led to the recognition among CBT clinicians and researchers that integrating mindfulness training with cognitive and behavioural interventions is a potent contribution to the treatment of a wide range of disorders. However, learning to integrate Mindfulness with the core components of CBT skilfully is a complex and demanding process, primarily because the theoretical framework on which clinicians operate is either unclear or absent, and practitioners are often provided with ill-defined rationales for each skill to be developed.

This short workshop will provide a strong theoretical and practical basis for integrating mindfulness training in CBT and REBT. It is also an opportunity to learn from the principal developer of Mindfulness-integrated Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (MiCBT), increasingly used in Australia as a crisis intervention approach in chronic conditions. No prior knowledge of mindfulness will be assumed.
