Abstract

cognitive behavioral therapy faculty development primary care providers psychiatry residency training
Since 1980, research has expanded the role of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as an adjunctive treatment for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder; as a primary treatment for bulimia nervosa, posttraumatic stress disorder, and borderline personality disorder; and as an extremely helpful adjunct in coping with many types of medical disorders. This chapter reviews diverse aspects of CBT training in psychiatric residencies. It describes the history and current status of CBT training in psychiatry, and the governance of psychiatry residency training. The chapter discusses the specific challenges to educating residents in CBT, and shows how to plan for appropriate CBT training in psychiatry residency. Although the chapter specifically addresses CBT training in psychiatry residency, there is also a need to train primary care providers to implement CBT interventions, and most of the guidelines presented here are equally applicable. The chapter also outlines some ways to augment existing CBT faculty resources.
