We have introduced CBTm Education Classes to help participants: 1) learn the basic principles of CBT, 2) learn the quality self-help CBT resources, 3) get a “head start” on treatment.

Classes include both didactic and experiential learning. Home exercises are suggested every week. Participants are encouraged to invite a family member or friend to attend the classes with them. The four sessions are semi-structured and cover the following material:

• Mindfulness
• What is CBT?
• Thought records
• Problem Solving
• Goal Setting
• Basics of Exposure Therapy
• Behavioural Activation
• Healthy Living

When? Each month, alternating between English and French, a new course begins. There is a weekly session lasting 90 minutes. We encourage participants to attend all 4 sessions. You can re-register for the course if you wish when it is offered again. Classes are offered on Tuesdays.

Where/ How? The sessions take place via a videoconferencing platform.
