How it Works
CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a negative cycle.
CBT aims to help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts.
You're shown how to change these negative patterns to improve the way you feel.
Unlike some other talking treatments, CBT deals with your current problems, rather than focusing on issues from your past.
It looks for practical ways to improve your state of mind on a daily basis.
1. Payment
Fees for all courses must be paid prior to starting course. Each module must be paid for before that module will commence. All modules must be paid for with cheque, postal order or bank draft. Cash will not be accepted.
2. Return of Fees
Fees will only be returned where a class is not formed. If a student is eligible for a return of fees, they must fill out a refund form available from the director’s office. Fees are not refundable if a student has started a course and wishes to discontinue.
All refunds will be processed mid-October 2023.
