Introducing the Thought-Feeling Connection (CBT Clinical Demonstration)

Video Description

In this video, we show an example of a therapist explaining the thought-feeling connection to a client. This discussion is often a part of introducing the client to cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and its treatment targets. An information sheet related to the Thought-Feeling Connection called “Thinking & Feeling” can be found here: https://www.cci.health.wa.gov.au/Resources/For-Clinicians/Depression The thought-feeling connection is also covered in several other information sheets and worksheets on the CCI website: https://www.cci.health.wa.gov.au/Resources/Overview A corresponding clinician reflection exercise can be downloaded from our website as a companion to this video. Engaging in these reflection exercises will help you to maximise your learning, and can equip you to use the demonstrated principles in your own work: https://www.cci.health.wa.gov.au/Training/Demonstration-Videos/Clinician-Reflection-Exercises Related Videos: - Working through a Thought Diary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eyE20HpaCo _________________________________________________________________ The CCI CBT Clinical Demonstration video series aims to demonstrate the use of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) strategies, and is designed for use by mental health professionals interested in using CBT to treat problems such as depression and anxiety.
