This CME respects your time. This workshop is certified at the highest level (three-credits-per-hour) by the College of Family Physicians of Canada. Our 3:1 CME saves you an incredible amount of time (and therefore money) over 1:1 CME. Just have a look at the five-year benefit calculations.
Many physician leaders have been trained by CBT Canada over the past twenty years. Alumni include CFPC presidents (both national & provincial), department chairs, residency training program directors—and even a few doctors who are comfortable using drills & saws.

Peterborough Family Health Team and CBT Canada are pleased to present a Ten-Minute CBT workshop on Wednesday, February 7, 2018. The training will be held from 8:30AM to 11:45AM (TBC) at 185 King Street in Peterborough (TBC).
YES, “good enough” CBT can be integrated into ten-minute medical appointments.
In this three-hour crash course, UofT's Dr. Greg Dubord will teach you skills that may fundamentally change your management of many vexing behavioral problems. You’ll learn flexible medical CBT tools to enhance your existing approaches to common psychiatric disorders (e.g., addictions, anxiety, depression), chronic medical conditions (e.g., asthma, diabetes, chronic pain), and disease risk factors (e.g., obesity, lack of exercise, poor stress management).
We begin our journey by reinforcing the key concepts of empathy addiction, the medical consequences of free will, patient procrastination disorders, and the clinical implications of patient immaturity. We then practice goalification (the conversion of complaints into goals), and sanity-saving non-compliance retorts.
In Part II, we examine how to pinpoint the pathogenic beliefs (cognogens) at the root of common emotional and behavioral problems. We continue on to explore the Missing Piece in most practices: the core clinical skill of persuasion. Although every clinician will reply that s/he knows persuasion is central in medicine, few can name and describe which specific tool(s) of persuasion they’re using at any given moment. The common consequences of literally not knowing what one is doing are patient stagnation and clinician frustration.
Primary faculty Greg Dubord, MD is limber like a monkey from giving over 400 CBT workshops, and a University of Toronto CME Teacher of the Year.
Pithy pearls... my work in the clinic would have been way easier if I'd had this training back in medical school.

CBT Canada received the CFPC's National CME Program Award for providing "exceptional learning experiences" in its series of medical CBT workshops. After completing their medical CBT training, many clinicians express significant regret that they’d not taken it earlier. Why? They report that medical CBT prevents burnout—and brings joy back to clinical practice.
Terrific workshop... 'spot on' relevant... engaging & enthusiastic... high impact professionally & personally... I will definitely be back for more.
