Description
Description: Burns reflects on his unconventional path from psychopharmacology to cognitive therapy and the research that reshaped his thinking about depression. He discusses the limits of the chemical imbalance theory, the central role of motivation and resistance in recovery, and the development of TEAM CBT, including testing, empathy, agenda setting, and methods. Blending personal stories, outcome research, and live clinical reasoning, the session offers an engaging look at how rapid, lasting change can occur in real-world practice.
Syllabus Description: Dr. Burns will describe his personal evolution from biological psychiatry during his psychiatric residency to cognitive behavior therapy, and then to the new TEAM-CBT, which he has recently developed. TEAM-CBT aims for extremely high-speed treatment using innovative cognitive and motivational (resistance-busting) techniques. He will invite questions from audience participants.
Educational Objectives:
- Describe why Dr. Burns gave up a tenure track position in biological psychiatry to help develop CBT in the 1970s.
- Describe the four components of TEAM-CBT.
