Free to be Me : A course manual to offer Holistic CBT as a group or individual therapy Spiral bound

'Free to be Me' is a course manual providing the guidance and resources needed to run a course with individuals or groups based on a new model of CBT, Holistic Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (HCBT).

Building on the standard CBT model, it can easily be used by those familiar with CBT. Its 'trans-diagnostic', person-centred approach means that it can be used as part of the therapy offered in any mental health and related setting, and as a personal development course in faith and community groups.

The course consists of 16 weekly sessions and comes with powerpoint slides, handouts and facilitator guidance, helping participants to develop an affirming view of themselves as unique individuals.

The course offers standard CBT techniques alongside a wealth of other creative exercises to change the unhelpful thinking styles and behaviours that may hinder people from accessing their potential. A companion book 'Holistic Cognitive Behaviour Therapy' provides a theoretical overview of this approach and its applications.
