Drs. Aaron and Judith Beck conduct Cognitive Behavior Therapy training for professionals at Beck Institute.

Mental health professionals who treat soldiers, veterans, and their families require state-of-the-art training in effective treatments for depression, suicidality, anxiety, PTSD, substance abuse, anger, and personality disorders. The internationally renowned Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research has trained thousands of civilian and military professionals in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), shown in hundreds of clinical trials to be effective for these and a wide range of other psychological problems.

To increase the number of professionals trained to provide evidence-based treatment, Beck Institute has begun a partial-scholarship program for CBT Workshops at Beck Institute (future workshops: February, March, June, July 2010). Visit Training & Scholarships to learn more about the CBT workshops and how to apply for a partial scholarship.

The Beck Institute also offers a number of other training opportunities to health and mental health professionals at all levels of expertise.

  • Senior Beck Institute Faculty travel throughout the world to provide on-site training. We will work with your organization to create a personalized training program to suit your needs.
  • Participants in the Extramural Training Program can elect to learn how to deliver competent CBT supervision.
  • Find complete information about these training opportunities on the Beck Institute website, select Training.

Sixteen VA & military mental health professionals attended the 9/09 CBT Workshop at Beck Institute.

Information for soldiers (current & veteran), their families, and the professionals who treat them:

Many soldiers suffer from depression, nightmares, flashbacks, post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury, and other serious problems.

These problems can affect them during and after deployment for months and, in many cases, for years.

Many do not get the appropriate help, leaving them and their families vulnerable to tremendous suffering.

In some cases (and this number is increasing), soldiers take their own lives.

These problems can be effectively treated by mental health professionals trained in evidence-based Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT).
