"We can’t solve problems using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.’ – Albert Einstein

It is significant to understand that CBT is not a simple minded “recipe” approach to therapy: if the client has this problem, then use that technique. CBT cannot get rid of the problem, but it can help a person to handle the problem in a more constructive way. The approach conferred in this course is based on understanding your client, about whom you should already have some background based on your clinical and personal experience and bringing the two together in a treatment plan.

Important Note: It is very important when completing this course that you understand this is a development of your CBT skills in your helping relationships, this is not requiring you to provide standalone CBT sessions i.e. using this qualification to call yourself a CBT Therapist. It would be very dangerous to practice CBT without being appropriately qualified and supervised, please refer to being and accredited CBT Therapist and the BACP
