The Limits Of CBT In Treating Major Depression

Is CBT really the best treatment of depression?

Video Description

In 1995 Dr. Neil Jacobson stumbled onto a surprising conclusion in the treatment of Major Depression – the limited and underused behavioral aspects of CBT alone have the same therapeutic results as the cognitive components. Following this study he, along with scores of other master therapists and researchers from the behavioral and cognitive branches, pitted full CBT against a new and more simplistic behavioral treatment. The findings will surprise you.

The Place if proud to present this clinical training seminar by Rabbi Yonasan Bender SW on Behavioral Activation for depression. You will learn: 1) The fundamental differences between CBT and Behavioral Activation 2) Why Behavioral Activation is a more effective treatment than CBT for Major Depression 3) How to increase positive outcomes of a medication-only intervention 4) The basic treatment philosophy, approach, treatment structure, and specific interventions of Behavioral Activation

Yonasan Bender, SW graduated from Hebrew University’s School of Social Work. He has his psychotherapy practice at The Place: The Jerusalem Centre for Emotional Wellbeing.
