CBT plus, for lifestyle issues affecting mental and physical wellbeing.

A 3-day course.

This course describes an organised way of helping people to recognise their lifestyle problems and to do something about them.

Principally it addresses behaviour about which the client has mixed feelings: drinking and substance misuse for example, and a whole array of issues relating to common mental and physical health problems as well. Issues from taking psychoactive medication through to, in particular, sleeping, exercising and eating more healthily can all be addressed actively and constructively.
