It's no secret that stress levels are running high, both at work and at home. The impact is real: drained energy, reduced focus, and compromised well-being. While proven interventions exist, many people can't access them due to provider shortages, high costs, or the lingering stigma around therapy.

That's where Cognitive Behavioral Coaching (CBC) comes in. Research shows that CBC, when delivered by accredited professionals, reduces stress and boosts well-being. Rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), CBC translates decades of scientific insight into practical, solution-focused tools. By helping clients see the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and actions, CBC empowers them to shift patterns, build resilience, and take meaningful steps toward their goals.

Participants will:

Understand the foundations of Cognitive Behavioral Coaching (CBC) and how it differs from and complements Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Recognize common client thinking patterns and identify when Cognitive Behavioral Coaching approaches may be appropriate and effective.
Apply practical Cognitive Behavioral Coaching tools and techniques that can be immediately integrated into coaching conversations.
