If you are suffering from depression or anxiety, are motivated to learn more about yourself and your patterns, and are willing and able to try new ways of behaving then, the CBT skills group may be right for you.

The CBT skills group program, based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, is a simple and powerful concept which can influence our feelings by relating differently to our thoughts and changing how we act. In this program, you learn to relate to your thoughts skillfully and choose behaviours that help you in the long term.

• A 90-minute session facilitated by a physician once a week for eight weeks.
• A skilled training program set in a group format with around 15 people.
• Includes up to an hour of home practice each week to apply what you learn after each session to develop new ways of thinking and behaving to engage with your life and friends in meaningful ways.
