Course Description
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely used evidence-based therapies. It is also frequently reduced to simplistic techniques that overlook the depth of the model.
This training provides a clear and practical foundation in CBT as it is intended to be practised. You will learn how to conceptualise distress through the CBT framework and apply interventions with structure and precision.
Drawing on extensive clinical experience and advanced training at the Beck Institute in Philadelphia with the late Dr Aaron T. Beck, this course focuses on the core principles that underpin effective CBT. The emphasis is on clinical application rather than surface-level technique.
You will leave with a stronger understanding of how to use CBT thoughtfully, flexibly, and effectively in real-world practice.
Learning Objectives
By completing this CPD training, you will be able to:
- Explain the core CBT model and how it conceptualises psychological distress
- Develop structured CBT case conceptualisations for clinical presentations
- Select and interpret psychometric tools commonly used in CBT
- Identify maladaptive thinking patterns and apply strategies when clients struggle to recognise them
- Use Socratic questioning and thought evaluation techniques with greater precision
- Apply behavioural activation in a clinically meaningful way beyond basic activity scheduling
- Troubleshoot common barriers when clients do not respond to standard CBT strategies
Who Is This Training For?
This training is designed for psychologists, therapists, and mental health professionals seeking strong foundational CBT skills.
It is particularly suited to clinicians who:
- Want a deeper and more practical understanding of CBT
- Feel their current CBT skills are overly formulaic
- Are early in their CBT training and want a structured foundation

Amanda Moses has trained thousands of psychologists and allied health professionals internationally. Below is a selection of feedback from psychologists who have completed CPD training and courses through Amanda Moses Psychology.
The clear and logical step by step approach provided and the walk through and examples given for each differential. Broken down very clearly and Spoken in language that I can understand. The citations to research and additional reading. Such a valuable training, loved everything about it!
Generally, explaining everything in more “simple” terms. It’s really such a big topic but you broke it down well and your slides were informative and clear. The subtleties and nuances that don’t present typically makes me realise I need to learn a lot more to be more effective in practical terms with clients. Thank you
Amanda's courses are definitely on my list for continuing PD - she's absolutely brilliant!
And super lovely - an incredible, empathetic and caring role model for sure x
Something else that has absolutely spurred me on - realising just how much Amanda is doing for Neurodiversity and those of us realising, we are ND a little later in life.
Having Amanda and a few others with similar passions providing so much support and education and acceptance has truly blown me away.
I am really enjoying your course so far- it's the most engaging CPD I have done for ages!!
The training has been invaluable - I am most grateful to you and your wisdom.
Amanda, your course and the way you present it, is truly at another level. I really don’t know how I would have managed without it. It was worth every cent!
I always gain incredible value from Amanda’s knowledge and insights. I look forward to undertaking future professional development sessions she runs.
Since returning to work as a psychologist after extended maternity leave to care for my young family, I’ve embarked on a journey and a personal mission to learn as much as I can about neurodiversity affirming practice. It was amazing finding Amanda Moses’ work because I knew I could rely on the information she was providing to be truly NDA, which is something I often worried about earlier on in my journey. I recommend Amanda Moses Psychology to colleagues who endeavor to learn more about NDA practice, and I’m really excited to access further training through Amanda Moses Psychology.
I have always found Amanda’s trainings to be exceptionally well-paced, evidence-based, detailed, and practical. The content is thoughtfully delivered and provides clear strategies that can be readily applied in practice. Amanda is highly knowledgeable, and her trainings are well worth the investment. As a psychologist supporting Autistic and ADHD individuals across the lifespan, I would highly recommend any of her programs.
Your training is incredible!! I want you to know. It covers everything I could possibly want to know, from basic to all the extra considerations and complexities. I am truly loving it, applying it already in sessions with clients, and am shortly about to commence formal assessment. Thank you so much for this PD. I’m excited to engage in the last parts.
