The Lighthouse Week
At the leading edge of CBT
Lighthouse Weeks are specially designed for more advanced CBT therapists wishing to spend time in a relaxed atmosphere exploring new developments at the leading edge of CBT.
Workshops in the Lighthouse Week are likely to be informed by evidence, but by virtue of being at the leading edge, may not yet have been subject to rigorous random controlled trials.
The Lighthouse Week is a week for new ideas.
Due to the success of the Lighthouse Week 2009, we shall be running it again in 2010. For 2010, the Lighthouse Week is four and a half days, with the Thursday afternoon left free for participants to enjoy Byron and surrounds.

Pre-requisites for attendance at the Lighthouse Week are:
- Satisfying qualification requirements that the practitioner already has intermediate to advanced CBT skills e.g. has been a CBT practitioner for at least 2 years, and has good knowledge and use of CBT formulation and CBT skills. You should be able to use these with a partner without coaching (e.g. identification of negative automatic thoughts, establishing behavioural experiments)
- At least two years experience as a qualified mental health professional
- Willingness to do self-experiential CBT work.
The Workshops that make up the Lighthouse Week are Cultivating Self-Esteem: A Compassion-focused Approach and Mindfulness in the therapeutic context.
