Up to 1 in 5 children will have experienced a mental
health problem by the age of eighteen. Mental health problems during childhood
significantly impair everyday functioning, academic achievement, peer and
family relationships and, if left untreated, increase the risk of mental health
problems in young adulthood. Fortunately, effective interventions are available
with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) for the prevention and treatment of many
emotional disorders during childhood.
This workshop will be interactive and will provide a
practical introduction to the use of CBT with children and adolescents. The
workshop will:
• Provide an understanding of the basic CBT model
• Familiarise participants with the PRECISE process of
undertaking CBT with children and young people
• Demonstrate a number of ways in which the core
elements of CBT interventions can be suitably adapted and used with children
(aged 7-18) in clinical and educational settings
