Introductory Course on Well-Being Therapy

A specific psychotherapeutic strategy for modulating psychological well-being and pursuing euthymia, Well-Being Therapy (WBT), has been developed and validated in a number of randomized controlled trials. WBT has been manualized (Fava, G.A.: Well-Being Therapy. Treatment Manual and Clinical Applications. Basel, Karger, 2016). Translations of the manual have been published in Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, German, French, Hungarian, Turkish and Polish.

A certification process for WBT has been promoted by the Academy of Well-Being Therapy, of which Professor Giovanni A. Fava, MD, is President. The certification process includes attendance of an Introductory Course, individual supervision of two clinical cases treated with WBT, and case presentation at an Advanced Course.

The Introductory Course includes two days: Saturday, March 29, 13.30-17.30 (Central European time) and Sunday, March 30, 14.00-17.30. The aim of the course is to provide an in-depth understanding of assessment strategies, indications and clinical applications of WBT. The course is challenging and intensive, and represents an excellent opportunity for clinicians to improve their knowledge on the assessment and treatment of mental disorders. Case presentations and interactive learning strategies will allow to reach this purpose. The introductory course will be held in English.
