14th April 2012
This is the third in a series of posts triggered by Nick Grey's workshop on memory-focused approaches in CBT for adults with PTSD. In the second post yesterday, I wrote about " ... treatment structure". In today's post I want to step back for a moment and get a broader …
BABCP spring meeting: Nick Grey on memory-focused approaches in CBT for adults with PTSD - treatment structure (2nd post)
13th April 2012
Yesterday I wrote an introductory post on this "Memory-focused approaches ... with PTSD" workshop. So how did it go? It went well. I'm definitely glad I went to this seminar. I say "seminar" because, as is typically the case with BABCP conference-associated "workshops", there was minimal chance for participants to …

12th April 2012
I've just arrived from Scotland off the sleeper for the two days of the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) Spring Workshops and Conference. Today it's workshops and we have a choice of five. I'm going to Nick Grey's on "Memory-focused approaches in cognitive therapy for adults with …
Guildford BABCP conference: the four main areas I want to use clinically after this conference (eighth post)
28th July 2011
I've already written a series of seven blog posts on this year's BABCP conference. What are the key points I want to take away? I think they centre around four areas. Most important for me is what's been triggered by Michael Lambert's presentation on "Supershrinks and pseudoshrinks" . Secondly, a …
Guildford BABCP conference: last morning and the NICE guideline recommendation on the provision of couple therapy (seventh post)
27th July 2011
The last morning of the conference was pretty abbreviated for me as I needed to catch a train to London at around 11.00am. I went along to the first three talks of the symposium on "Behavioural couples therapy (BCT) in the South-West: New developments." Interesting times. Working in Scotland and …
Guildford BABCP conference: fathers & child anxiety, and more on couple therapy (sixth post)
26th July 2011
Yesterday I wrote about the "Discussion on the Dodo assertion - all good depression treatments are equally effective." What happened next? It was keynote lecture time ... with a choice of four. Probably I should have cold-bloodedly chosen to go back to Don Baucom on "Relationship functioning and adult psychopathology: …
Guildford BABCP conference: discussion on the Dodo assertion - all good depression treatments are equally effective (fifth post)
25th July 2011
I wrote yesterday about "Supershrinks and pseudoshrinks". The first panel discussion, that I then went to on the main conference's second day, overlapped a bit into this territory. It addressed the proposition "All bona fide psychological treatments for depression are equally effective" with a couple of experts supporting the notion …

24th July 2011
Yesterday I wrote about the first morning of this year's BABCP conference and the plenary lecture - " ... Rolls Royce therapy & Anke Ehlers on PTSD (third post)". Good stuff. Heart-warming to see such fine, persistent, thoughtful research yielding such encouraging results for PTSD sufferers. Would that attempts to …
Guildford BABCP conference: Rolls Royce therapy and Anke Ehlers on PTSD (third post)
23rd July 2011
I wrote yesterday about one of the first symposia of this major annual meeting - "Guildford BABCP conference ... cognitive factors that maintain GAD and worry (second post)". After the symposium, we then had to choose between four plenary lectures. I opted for Anke Ehlers speaking on "Cognitive therapy for …
Guildford BABCP conference: symposium on cognitive factors that maintain GAD and worry (second post)
22nd July 2011
First day of the conference proper. I wrote yesterday about the pre-conference "Workshop on couples therapy with Don Baucom" that I went to. It was excellent and I intend to write more about it later. For now though, the conference. 9.00 to 11.15am and already we have a choice of …
