Step Process (TH1)
Thursday, May 1, 2008
9:00 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. (6 CE Hrs.)
Padesky & Mooney’s 4-step model for building and strengthening resilience
integrates knowledge from resilience research, traditional cognitive therapy
methods, and constructive cognitive therapy approaches. Participants will learn
to search for strengths
within six main areas of competence characteristic of resilient individuals.
Guided exercises allow participants to practice skills that can help both clients
and therapists become more resilient in the face of daily challenges. This resilience
model can be integrated within CBT and other therapy approaches.
Christine Padesky, Ph.D., Center for Cognitive Therapy,
