Course Description:
Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide, with more than 300 million people affected globally by clinical depression. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) combines cognitive-behavioral therapy with Mindfulness meditative practice, and is specifically designed to help people who suffer chronic, relapsing depression (Major Depressive Disorder). In clinical trials, MBCT has been shown to reduce rates of relapse by 50% among those who suffer from recurrent unipolar depression, and to be as or more effective than anti-depressant treatment alone. Whether you are looking to enhance your clinical or personal life this fun, informative, and participatory class will provide you with an overview of the core MBCT concepts. APRNS, RNs, LPNs, LMHTs will earn 6 contact hours. Social workers, LPCs, LCPCs, and psychologists will earn 6 diagnosis contact hours. ACHAs will earn 6 (RC) contact hour.
Approval is pending for 5.5 hours for occupational and physical therapists.
