Description
This course is an introduction to the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Diabetes credit-bearing module (delivered at King's College London), which aims to help you understand the types of distress experienced by people with diabetes, and to understand how these can be understood using a cognitive behavioural therapy framework.
The course includes some of the materials delivered as part of the module and therefore, you get access to the accessible online content. You will gain this knowledge through a series of talks and podcasts, as well as reading academic journal articles. You will develop key cognitive behavioural therapy skills, such as guided discovery, and behaviour change methods through observing role plays, and you have a chance to practice these skills and reflect on your learning through a multiple choice exam and receive a Certificate of Completion.
Detailed Description
Specifically, this module aims to:
1. Provide students with an understanding of the cognitive behavioural model and its applications to supporting people with their diabetes self-care.
2. Through experiential learning activities with peers and actor-led simulations and through observing and participating in role plays, to be able to demonstrate practical CBT skills relevant to the diabetes context, for example, using guided discovery to identify thoughts, feelings and behaviours associated with diabetes burn-out.
This is a fully online self-paced course and is available indefinitely.
