The workshop is being re-run following very positive feedback.  Previous delegates enjoyed the balance of theory and practical exercises with a reflective approach and found the day highly relevant and informative with very knowledgeable facilitators.

The Introduction to CAT workshop allows professionals to find out what CAT involves and to also look at the possibility of accredited CAT training  (for a full range of CAT training please click here).

Aims:
This one day workshop offers an introduction to the CAT model and its theoretical underpinnings; key concepts including the unique reformulation tools collaboratively developed with the patient; and the structure and method of a CAT, to provide an experiential taster of this relational therapy.
