Abstract:
This three-credits-per-hour workshop is for clinicians wishing to integrate more of CBT's tested tools into their daily work with general medical patients.

ACM MM 23 — MultiMediate: Multi-modal Behaviour Analysis for Artificial Mediation.
29 Oct 2023 - 03 Nov 2023 • Ottawa, Canada
Abstract:
Artificial mediators are a promising approach to support group conversations, but at present, their abilities are limited by insufficient progress in group behaviour sensing and analysis. The MultiMediate challenge is designed to work towards the vision of effective artificial mediators by facilitating and measuring progress on key group behaviour sensing and analysis tasks. This year, the challenge focuses on the recognition of bodily behaviours as well as on engagement estimation. In addition, we continue to accept submissions to previous years’ tasks, including bakchannel detection, agreement estimation, eye contact detection, and next speaker prediction.

GriefWork: Growing from life's inevitable losses (2023.12.06; via Zoom)
06 Dec 2023 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
Losses happen. That's always been true, but it's more salient in these dreadful Days of COVID. Historically, it was the wisdom traditions—religion and philosophy—that provided us with comfort. Today psychology helps too: the utterly universal experience of loss has spawned much excellent scientific research. Topics include differentiating between MDD and grief, the CBT model (and techniques), the sunk-cost effect, forgiveness, DSM-5-TR's new Prolonged Grief Disorder, and thanatophobia. The workshop assumes your appointments are brief, averaging only 5–7 minutes. With that in mind, we teach the CBT tools that are highest in impact and practicality. The goal is to efficiently help patients cope—at least a little better—with the pain of some of life’s inevitable losses.

17 Jan 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
Medical CBT is specifically designed for the ultra-brief appointments typical of primary care. In this workshop you'll learn the essentials of a skill that may fundamentally change how you cope with the all-important psychological side of medical practice. Topics include goalification, scaling, and I/O charts; empathy addiction; the physics of CBT; cognogen identification; ~10 tools of persuasion; and the management of non-compliance. You'll learn flexible tools to integrate with your existing approaches to major depression, persistent depression (“dysthymia” until DSM-5), chronic worry, chronic pain, panic disorder, non-compliance, substance abuse, illness anxiety, borderline personality disorder, suicidality, and more. Is this workshop right for you? Ten-Minute CBT is an introductory workshop that reviews ten of the 52 tools covered in the original CBT Tools module, along with some highly-practical tips harvested from other three-hour modules. If you'd like a high-impact introduction, or if you'd like a refresher of the material you took before, Ten-Minute CBT is an excellent choice.

Worry Management: CBT for GAD (2024.02.07; via Zoom)
07 Feb 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
CBT is by far the most evidence-based non-pharmacologic approach to anxiety, and important components can be effortlessly integrated into normal primary care appointments. This highly-practical, three-credits-per-hour CME works through family practice case studies of excessive worry, generalized anxiety disorder and common contemporary fears. The focus is on cognitive & behavioral techniques that take ten minutes or less. Participants are encouraged to discuss real-life cases. Our ~25 discussion topics will include psychodynamic "fixing", the risk-resources ratio, the looming vulnerability model, the intolerance of uncertainty, the inflated sense of responsibility, procrastination, assertiveness training, and "clutter studies". Note: Many of the non-pharmacological tools taught in this CBT Canada workshop are very important to the resilience of physicians, and can be passed along to children and other family members—all while fully respecting their boundaries.

Bedside Manners 2.0: 26 tools to boost your "alliance-o-meter" readings... (2024.02.21; via Zoom)
21 Feb 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
There are many tools (besides exhausting empathy injections) you can use to keep the doctor-patient relationship far from the Zone of Peril. In the 3.0 hour, 9.0 Mainpro+ credit Bedside Manners 2.0, we review twenty-six (26) such tools. Topics covered include the art, science and legalities of apologies; collaboration signifiers; emotional investment expressions; existential connectors (e.g., meaning, isolation, death); expectation management; the universal need for "fairness"; fiduciary role reminders; goal (re)negotiations; humour (honk, honk); jolting studies on physician punctuality; Gable's "response style" matrix; "transference 2.0"; validation (as in borderline personality disorder) ... and sixteen additional rapport-building tools. Doctors who keep their "alliance-o-meter" readings high—without reflexively resorting to draining empathy dosing—enjoy better clinical outcomes—and fewer fears of complaints—and better personal (and familial) well-being.

Personality Disorders: Manage them before they manage you (2024.03.06; via Zoom)
06 Mar 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
This practical workshop begins with a review of the science of personality assessment. We examine the most popular inventories, doing a fair bit of debunking along the way. The core of the workshop is the systematic review of DSM-5’s ten personality disorders: the insensitively-named "MAD" (paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal), "BAD" (antisocial, borderline, histrionic, narcissistic), and "SAD" (avoidant, dependent, and obsessive-compulsive) "clusters". As we review each of the ten personality disorders, our emphases are on 1) rapid diagnosis (when possible); 2) modular treatments (when desired), and 3) clinician coping (always). Personalities and their disorders are by definition enduring and predictable. When you improve your skills in reading others, you give yourself a little "superpower". That superpower will make both your clinical practice and your life in general a fair bit easier.

Relationship Tune-Up: Tools for building stronger bonds (2024.04.03; via Zoom)
03 Apr 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
Loneliness is "the new smoking". When chronic, it erodes both emotional and physical health. Our society's loneliness epidemic leads many patients to (mis)use your office as their primary source of social support. Your burden can be very heavy. Today's cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) provides patients with much more than the typical advice of “join a club”. Upon completing the Relationship Tune-Up workshop, you’ll have dozens of practical tools to help you improve their relations with friends, colleagues, and loved ones. Major topics include "ten-minute couples counseling"; helping patients (and others) overcome social anxiety; and the fascinating issue of adult sibling relations. Special topics include the scientific determinants of friendship; the trap of co-rumination; research on "emotional contagion"; "friendshifts"; the complex (and embarrassing) emotion of hurt; the portfolio analysis tool; relations with individuals with antisocial personality disorder (AsPD); the horror of ostracism; and the compelling research on the timing of residential moves on children. As the Roman philosopher Cicero (106BC–43BC) wrote in his classic treatise Laelius de Amicitia (On Friendship): "Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief."

Organizer:

Abstract:
As Aristotle wrote, "Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence."

Special topics include awe, career decisions, experiences, fun, gratitude, humour, mind-expanding drugs, optimism, pets, play, resilience, savouring, self-actualization, and shinrin-yoku.

Panic & Phobias: Conquering fears with CBT (2024.05.01; via Zoom)
01 May 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
Physicians trained in CBT derive significant professional satisfaction from treating panic disorder and the phobias. Most patients respond relatively quickly, and relapse rates are reassuringly low. We'll review CBT for panic, and explore how the cognitive model can be applied to such things as cognitive decline-related anxiety, irritable bowel syndrome, migraine headaches, perimenopausal symptoms, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. In our review of phobias, we'll examine the subtleties of systematic desensitization, OCD-related avoidance, PTSD-related avoidance, public speaking anxiety, selective mutism, separation anxiety, and social anxiety. Most phobias are very treatable. Overcome your workshop-o-phobia and register today!

PTSD: From post-traumatic stress to post-traumatic growth (2024.05.15; via Zoom)
15 May 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
PTSD has a lifetime prevalence rate of nearly 10% in women (5% in men), which rivals that of depression. Fortunately, the DSM-5 "holy book" made it easier to diagnose PTSD, and recent research has provided us with much more effective treatments. We'll begin with a review of debriefing (i.e., interventions designed to prevent PTSD after a trauma), including insights from head instructor, Greg Dubord, MD, and his work with the Canadian government's National Roundtable in Ottawa. We'll then review a shortcut to the diagnosis of PTSD, proceeding from there to the details of (and controversies pertaining to) the fuller diagnostic criteria. The core of the workshop is treatment interventions for the four major criteria. Special topics include the curious case of EMDR, “emotional baggage” (i.e., old traumata), the eye-opening forgiveness research, so-called "hindsight bias", the Oprah-esque "imaginal rescripting", the Faustian bargain of children who survived ACEs (adverse childhood experiences), and what data we have on medical marijuana. We end with the uplifting literature on post-traumatic growth. As always, the assumption is a ten-minute appointment (with three patients in the waiting room).

The SuperDoc Workshop: Leveraging CBT Tools to Maximize Physician Resiliency (2024.09.18; via Zoom)
18 Sep 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
Today’s cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is a treasure-trove of scientifically‐tested tools to help physicians increase their resiliency and reduce their risk of burnout. Physician wellness is important for countless reasons, including that it significantly determines the quality of care delivered (CMPA, 2018). Simply put, the burned-out doctor is probably a crappy doctor. Sadly, the burned-out are also at risk for Premature Clinician Aging Disorder (PCAD). PCAD isn't just the result of a heavy caseload and long hours. PCAD is also predicted by one's psychology. In this three-hour workshop, we'll review techniques for silencing self-criticism, decreasing rumination, letting go of the past, increasing self-compassion, improving decision-making, optimizing time management, boosting mindfulness, and making a marriage spark joy. PCAD is not inevitable: you don’t need to age faster than the required rate (unless you want to). Please join CBT Canada faculty for the fast-paced & practical SuperDoc workshop. You’ll emerge equipped with versatile CBT tools to boost the functioning and improve the mental health of your patients, your family, your friends—and the ongoing project called “you”.

02 Oct 2024 • virtual (via Zoom), Canada
Organizer:
CBT Canada
Abstract:
This three-credits-per-hour workshop is for clinicians wishing to integrate more of CBT's tested tools into their daily work with general medical patients. Veteran presenter Dr. Greg Dubord and CBT Canada faculty explain the key features of over 26 tools used to change patients' maladaptive beliefs and behaviors. You'll then see step-by-step demonstrations of how to best integrate each tool into ten-minute medical appointments. Participants gain familiarity and comfort with the tools through the coaching received while practicing in dyads. This sleeves-up workshop emphasizes practical assessment tools, homework compliance enhancers, and change-oriented charting. The focus is on the most strategic interventions that can be integrated into routine (e.g., 10 minute) clinical appointments.
