Cognitive Behavioural Training / Therapy / Coaching Glasgow

Currently the UK Government has tasked the HPC to regulate counsellors and psychotherapists.  There is uncertainty as to whether this may restrict the service registered counsellors and psychotherapists can offer clients. If this regulation does limit the models of therapy and services we can offer our clients then we will reject the new regulation and cease the use of the protected titles. In this event it will not be our service that changes, it will be the definition of "counsellor" and "psychotherapist", which will no longer accurately describe the service we offer. Until that time Denise remains a CCC registered counsellor, and Stuart remains a NACHP (National Association of Counsellors, Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists)  and NCP (National Council of Psychotherapists) fully registered and accredited Psychotherapist. 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy / Training / Coaching in Glasgow

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy / Training, or CBT / CBC as it is usually known, is a special form of Psychological therapy. Like Life Coaching, personal development training or NLP, it is often provided in a training format. Therefore some practitioners may consider themselves "clinical counsellors" who provide CBT, others may prefer to consider themselves "trainers" who empower their clients while still working through deeper issues.

Cognitive:

In lay-mans terms this is our perception and identification of things around us. We may have faulty perception for a number of reasons. This may for example be due to obsession or trauma colouring the way we see things.

Behaviour

This is simply the way be act, behave and react to what we have already noticed going on around us. Again we can learn to act inappropriately for a number of reasons, often again because of trauma or obsession.

Therapy

The process of understanding, relearning and retraining in order to change these errors from occurring and having a negative impact on us. Care is taken to have a non-judgmental attitude. The client is helped to challenge their own perceptions and behaviours. It is most certainly NOT about the therapist telling you how to act and think!

What to expect from Cognitive Behavioural therapy in Glasgow?

You will be encouraged to examine, challenge and understand your perceptions and behaviours. Where appropriate you will be set exercises and challenges to help you change these for more positive thoughts and behaviours.

It is quite normal to expect "homework" from your therapist. Indeed Stuart uses his own award winning training pack with clients, formulated from real life practice over more than 12 years.
