Sir,
Sub: submission of workshop proposal for ANCIPS2022 on behalf of Indo-US Psychiatry Education forum and Life fellow of IPS reg.
I am herewith submitting the proposal of workshop titled “CBT for practicing clinicians” for discussion and approval by the scientific committee of the ANCIPS2022.
Psychiatric practice in India can be improved by making psychotherapy interventions available to more number of patients and their families. However most psychiatrists in practice are limited by lack of adequate number of trained therapists to meet the enormous need for these services.
This workshop is planned with the intention of making practicing psychiatrist well versed with principles of CBT and learn high powered techniques that can be incorporated into the routine psychiatric practice. The workshop is based on the one year of monthly online webinars on CBT involving Faculty from New Jersy, USA and faculty as well as residents of three medical colleges: Gandhi, Osmania and SVS medical colleges from India.
The residents learnt CBT skills, prepared videos as well as patient skill building educational leaflets. The essence of our work for the past year will be presented through workshop.
