Course Description:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness are two methods on the cutting-edge of evidence-based psychotherapy today. Together these techniques are highly-effective in the treatment of anxiety and depressive disorders. Even disorders found to be often resistant to treatment, such as substance abuse and personality disorders, are responding to this unique integration of therapeutic skills. With the advent of MRI, researchers have been able to see structural changes in the brain as a result of Mindfulness practice. Other research has demonstrated how combining CBT and Mindfulness significantly reduces relapses.
By attending this one-day seminar you will learn not only the basic techniques in CBT and Mindfulness, but also the application of more advanced methods. This approach is designed both to inform those who are new to this field as well as to provide more advanced clinical options to those already familiar with the basics. The seminar will include PowerPoint slides, case examples and experiential learning.

A graduate of Washington University, St. Louis, he was the coordinator of out-patient and in-patient programs at Jewish Hospital’s Behavioral Medicine Center from 1982 to 1987, during which time he specialized in relaxation training, biofeedback and cognitive behavioral treatment of a variety of stress- and pain-related disorders, as well as depression and anxiety disorders. His work with a phobic patient was recognized in Newsweek, May 1986.

He later trained under Al Chung-liang Huang (author of Embrace Tiger, Return to Mountain) and founded and directed the T’ai Chi Institute of St. Louis from 1976 to 1983. Later, he studied with a Tibetan Lama from the Kagyu lineage, learning various meditation techniques, particularly Mind Training (Lo Jong).
