Cognitive – Behavioural Therapy is considered the “gold standard” treatment for many psychological conditions most commonly seen in the clinical setting. Despite it’s strong evidence base, many practitioners have gone a more “integrative” route and surprisingly few have developed the advanced expertise needed to deliver the most in-demand treatment effectively on a regular basis to a clientele that often remains “stuck.”
