Integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
There is no question today that Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is an important tool in a clinician's toolbox. Significant empirical research has demonstrated its effectiveness with issues such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, phobias, panic disorder, OCD, ADHD, social phobia, and other issues. At IAP, we view CBT as a general theory influenced by Aaron Beck's Cognitive Therapy (CT), Behavioral Theory, and Ellis' Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT). This general theory provides a structure for a number of interventions culled from a variety of theoretical sources to improve treatment effectiveness. These sources include Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Schema Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Exposure with Response Prevention, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, and others.

He treats clients using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which he trained in during his graduate training as well as taking trainings at the Albert Ellis Institute, Beck Institute, and Edna Foa's Center for Treatment and Study of Anxiety. Dr. Sutton is also versed in a number of evidence based, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy treatments for ADHD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Phobias, Panic Attacks, Depression, OCD, and PTSD. Although his work is from a CBT frame, he also incorporates techniques from his training in Schema Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitivation Reprocessing, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Structural-Strategic Family Therapy.

WORKSHOPS

This six hour workshop is geared both towards clinicians new to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as those experienced with CBT. We will discuss the theoretical basis of CBT, its history, and how to integrate multiple other approaches into CBT to increase effectiveness. Creative ways of working with client's cognitions and techniques for behavioral interventions will be taught and practiced. We will then discuss the CBT approaches to specific diagnoses such as ADHD, GAD, phobias, depression, OCD, PTSD, and Panic Disorder.

ONE WAY MIRROR TRAINING
|
Participants who have taken the six-hour workshops in CBT will be invited to attend the 10 session live "one way mirror" training where one therapist from the training will volunteer to see the client*, while Dr. Sutton calls into the session, giving suggestions while the group watches the session via video camera. The series is limited to 6 participants. The first 30 minutes of the training will be spent discussing the case, the plan for the session that day, and addressing the theory and techniques. The client will then work with the therapist for 50 minutes while the team gives suggestions during the session. After the session is over, the group will spend the last 30 minutes discussing what worked, what didn't, and why. We will be able to go beyond just theory and technique and see how to apply the approaches in practice.
|
*The series is limited to 6 participants.
**Groups larger or smaller than 6 participants may split the total costs. Please reach out to info@sfiap.com if you have a group of 6+ for assistance registering.
Most attendees can not attend all 10 sessions, which is common. The amount of 10 sessions is the same as taking a class, so unfortunately, we do not refund if the person cannot make a session. All proceeds from the training and client payments go to hiring trainers, equipment, and rent for the trainings.
If there are not enough people signed up for attendance, the One-Way Trainings may be cancelled. There will be a confirmation email going out one week before stating if so. If you have already paid, you will be reimbursed. If you have to cancel and do so before 24 hours of the event, you will be reimbursed. Audio and Video recordings may take place at the event. This would be for professional use and could show up on the IAP website. Any confidential information will be edited out at your discretion.
