How to develop a Case Formulation in CBT

Sun, 9 Mar 2025 09:00 - 11:00 GMT

Case Formulation (CF) also known as Case Conceptualisation enables the therapist to identify what the functional connections might be between thoughts, feelings, behaviours and physical symptoms, often with a particular focus on what is maintaining as well what might have caused their problems.

This workshop will look at frameworks for CFs and how they can best be used in practical ways with clients by examining specific examples across conditions.
