Join Dr. Pia Callesen (Kopenhagen) and Dipl.-Psych. Nadine Kawaters (Witten) for an intensive one-day workshop introducing the basics of Metacognitive Therapy (MCT) for depression and anxiety disorders.
Anxiety and depression can be debilitating, with individuals trapped in cycles of worry, rumination, and hypervigilance to bodily symptoms or signs of danger. MCT offers an evidence-based approach to break these cycles by addressing unhelpful thinking patterns and challenging the cognitive processes that maintain anxiety and depression.
This workshop will provide:
• An introduction to the theoretical foundations of MCT for anxiety and depression and the S-REF model developed by Prof. Adrian Wells.
• Practical tools and techniques to reduce worry/rumination and restructure maladaptive metacognitive beliefs (e.g. detached mindfulness, attention training technique).
• Real-world case examples to illustrate the application of MCT.
• Interactive exercises to build your confidence in delivering MCT interventions.
Whether you’re a psychologist, psychotherapist, or mental health professional, this workshop is designed to enhance your knowledge of Metacognitive Therapy and how it is applied to different mental health disorders.
