Medical CBT Training
Why train in medical CBT?
Medical CBT is a streamlined adaptation of cognitive behavior therapy for ten-minute medical visits. Physicians trained in medical CBT enjoy lower stress, improved patient outcomes, and greater job satisfaction (reports).
Keeners may wish to commit to a Certificate in Medical CBT (CMCBT) or a one-year Fellowship in Medical CBT (FMCBT). CBT Canada also provides a customizable series of in-house workshops (e.g., Happiness Science, SuperDoc, Teen CBT).

Testimonials
- Specific & clear points... very practical... well worth the time… CBT should be core training for all physicians. —Peter MacKean, MD, FCFP, President, College of Family Physicians of Canada

- I wish I’d had this training at the start of my medical practice—it would have saved me much headache & heartache.

- When family doctors ask me how to help patients rely less on opioids, I always steer them to these workshops—these are essential skills for working with patients in pain. —Lori Montgomery, MD, FCFP, Medical Director, Chronic Pain Centre, University of Calgary
- Although we tend to think of CBT as an important therapeutic tool in family practice, I have found it to be extremely helpful in the ED environment as well.
