Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy A free online course

 "Today's world is full of stress-inducing situations caused by factors such as work, time limitations, family trouble and so on. If not managed well, stress can lead to depression and anxiety. Over the years, psychiatrists have developed treatments for those who suffer from such conditions, including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). This diploma course takes you through the history of CBT, the conditions it treats and the processes involved. We examine the underlying principles that inform various approaches to psychotherapy. The course then explores basic counselling skills, procedures and the code of ethics and professional standards required of psychotherapists. We include several practical exercises to help you understand these concepts. We explain case formulation, irrational beliefs and the ‘antecedents, behaviour, consequences’ (ABC) Model, followed by a step-by-step demonstration of a CBT session.

The course takes you through basic CBT techniques used to challenge negative thoughts and cognitive distortions. We study the use of CBT in treating depression, anxiety and phobias while investigating their causes and symptoms. We then examine the treatment’s role in addressing anger issues and insomnia. Finally, the course examines dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) and solution-focused therapy (SFT) to help you understand how they differ from CBT before laying out their histories and procedures.

These psychiatric conditions can negatively impact patients’ quality of life and even their physical health, leading to the possible onset of lifestyle diseases and eventually death. Patients should seek professional help as soon as symptoms are detected to prevent further degeneration. This course is aimed at psychotherapists, psychiatrists and medical practitioners who would like to enhance their skills to bring comfort to those suffering mentally. It also suits psychology and medical students or anyone with a particular interest in counselling."

 " This case demonstrates the potential effect of dietary changes on cholesterol levels. Typically, patients with primary severe hypercholesterolemia, defined as an LDL cholesterol level of 190 mg/dL or higher, are at increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and are given guideline-directed statin therapy due to their elevated risk for future coronary events. 1   A careful dietary history can be valuable in identifying patients who might benefit from dietary changes rather than a statin prescription. This patient was consuming a diet high in saturated fats, including red meats, eggs, and coconut oil. 2   A behavioral modification approach was appropriate because she had multiple areas for improvement in her diet and no history of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, or hypertension. However, this conservative approach may not be appropriate for patients with cardiovascular risk factors and/or genetic hypercholesterolemia. This nutritional approach is especial...
