CBT for Caregivers

CBT weekend workshop May 23rd & 24th


The Royal (in Ottawa) is hosting a CBT weekend workshop for caregivers. CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) is helpful for a broad range of mental health issues. Douglas Turkington is a pioneer in the use of CBT for people experiencing psychosis. He has written a number of books on the use of CBT for treatment of psychosis and is heavily involved in numerous clinical trials on this subject. We are very fortunate to have the opportunity to attend this workshop, somewhat locally, that is presented by such a world leading figure on this subject. There is a small cost which includes lunch both days of $50.
