I am a CBT therapist, let me tell you what that entailed training wise..1 year post grad in mental health interventionsSeveral years experience in mental health1 year advanced Cert in CBTExperience training and shadowing CBT2 years post grad diplomaOver 200 hours of observed and assessed CBT by an accredited CBT therapist That’s why I consider myself a CBT therapist.

So angry
