Salepage link: At HERE. Archive:

Have you ever wondered why some clients show quick, life-altering improvements with their anxiety within 3-4 sessions…while others seem to stay just as anxious as they were on the first session, even after YEARS of therapy?
 

• Maybe they start to no-show more as soon as you start with exposure techniques.
• They might show up consistently week after week, but seem to never follow through on homework or they “Yes, but…” their way through sessions.
• Others show up and work hard, but they still don’t get any traction…no matter how long and hard they try.

Dr. David Burns, pioneer in the development of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), saw that many of his clients continued to struggle with their anxiety, even though they’d been through months or years of therapy using CBT techniques.

That’s why he developed TEAM-CBT, building on foundational CBT principles to address the most common mistakes even the most advanced therapists make…to tackle the underlying reasons your clients might resist the positive changes you’re both aiming for.

This online certificate course with Dr. David Burns will show you how to use a counterintuitive, data-driven approach to build a stronger alliance with your clients, resolve hidden resistance and mixed feelings, and lower their anxiety dramatically — whether your clients are struggling with GAD, OCD, panic disorder, or specific phobias.

Using an entertaining style to share his vast clinical insight as well as in-session demonstrations, David illustrates how he’s used this process to help his anxious clients achieve rapid, complete and lasting recovery – many in just a few sessions, without drugs. You’ll leave this certificate course armed with concrete, practical strategies and tools you can use in your very next session.

ere’s What You’ll Learn in this Online Certificate Course:
