NEW GAHANNA OFFICE LOCATION
How to make your initial appointment with CCBT:
New patients must CALL prior to being scheduled so that intake information
can be taken, insurance contacted when appropriate, and suggestions
for staff be provided. Please do not use email to make an initial
appointment as those emails will not be answered. New patients must
call 614.459.4490.
CCBT is pleased to announce that eight of its Independent
Practicing Affiliates will be attending, in October 2009, the 2-day basic
training from the Gottman Institute for couples/marriage therapy. CCBT is
providing stipends for the tuition costs to build CCBT's capacity to provide
empirically supported couples/marriage therapy.
CBT and Behavior Couples Therapy Noted as
Empirically Supported
A newly published article in Newsweek magazine reviews the problems in
psychotherapy that result from a lack of scientific grounding in treatments.
It mentions specifically cognitive-behavioral therapy, cognitive therapy,
and behavior couples therapy as methods that have been shown to have an
effect on many patients. If you would like to read the article, here is the

Professional Training
If you wish to develop competency in the use of behavioral
and cognitive-behavioral strategies, continuing education is available
in several formats.
 |
For
institutions and organizations, one and two day trainings are
available on the use of the Integrated Functional Behavior
Assessment Protocol, basics of cognitive-behavioral therapy,
treatment of depression and anxiety with CBT, use of
schema-focused therapy strategies, treatment of OCD with exposure
and response prevention therapy, and treatment of hostile and
conflicted divorced parents.
|
|
|
For practitioners, individual or small group consultative training
on behavioral and cognitive-behavioral methods can be arranged.
These consultative sessions are intended to be case-specific, and
require releases from patients before their cases can be
discussed. On-site or phone consultations are both available
presently, with video-conferencing over web to be used in the
future.
|
|
|
The Center also provides
continuing education training to its staff, with a limited number
of outside slots available upon request. If you want to know the
calendar of staff training, please contact us via email or phone.
The Center is approved to provide continuing education to
professional clinical counselors and independent social workers in
Ohio, and will begin doing the same for psychologists in October
2008. |
