DBT Foundational Workshop Now Virtual
Aug 31, 2020 – Sep 10, 2020
Cognitive and Behavioral Consultants will host a Virtual Foundational Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) workshop with an Adolescent-Family Emphasis from August 31 through September 10, 2020. The virtual format provides an opportunity for professionals to learn from the comfort of their own home or office while engaging with other professionals from around the world. This workshop is for clinicians and members of existing consultation teams in agencies and schools. Thirty five Continuing Education Credit Hours will be offered for this training to NY Social Workers and all Psychologists.
CBC is the first—and only, to date—Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Program in NYS. The DBT- Linehan Board of Certification was formed to develop a comprehensive way to certify individual therapists in their competency to deliver DBT effectively and to certify programs that demonstrate their ability to deliver DBT programmatically with fidelity to the model as it has been researched.
Dr. Alec Miller co-developed DBT for multi-problem and self-harming adolescents which has been established as an evidence-based treatment for this population. Dr. Miller and his CBC colleagues will teach the theories, structure, and practice of the DBT model, including strategies for individual sessions, skills training groups, inter-session coaching, and the effective management of a consultation team.
