The first thing every therapist should do is establish a warm and non-judgmental Therapeutic Alliance and use empathy to help a client to tell their story.

We are all Homo Narrans or storytellers. In order to be an expert psychotherapist, you need to be an exquisite listener, compassionate and empathic. But listening alone is insufficient; Language structures reality and the questions we ask and the feedback we provide to clients and patients alters the stories they tell themselves and others as well as the beliefs that they hold. It is our job to bring out the good, not just the bad.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr Donald Meichenbaum PhD<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course 3: Ordinary Magic: Building Resilience and Strengths Across the Life Span<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;As we start the journey into Course 3 of this series, we are going to look at resilience across the entire lifespan. We&#8217;ll start off with the nature of resilience itself, and my observation that while trauma is everywhere, so is resilience. And in fact, as you&#8217;ll come to see, the good stuff is more critical than the bad stuff, in predicting how people will respond to difficult and challenging events. It&#8217;s our task in these Modules to see how these kinds of foundational building blocks and resilience engendering behaviours that we will explore, can be applied across the entire lifespan, and across different populations and groups, including, importantly, for yourselves as psychotherapists.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr Donald Meichenbaum PhD<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ebb0ffc6 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:16px;background:linear-gradient(135deg,var(--wp--preset--color--purple-blue) 0%,var(--wp--preset--color--sky-blue) 100%);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns are-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-80868740 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:55%\">\n<p class=\"has-sky-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:13px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:0.1em;text-transform:uppercase\">The Evolution of cognitive behaviour therapy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\" style=\"font-size:clamp(25.014px, 1.563rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 2.071), 42px);font-weight:700\"><strong>FREE Sample of Course Materials<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Dr Meichenbaum&#8217;s handouts for his lectures and seminars are legendary.

I feel so privileged to have the opportunity to learn from Dr. Meichenbaum &#8211; he is an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable psychologist and therapist and an inspiring teacher. I would like to think I could learn to use at least a small percentage of what he is offering.

I suppose at that time, I never really considered becoming a full-time therapist. I initially enjoyed integrating the methods into what I was already doing, and eventually started running a few group sessions and one-to-one therapy sessions both from a performance and resilience-building perspective. The more I spoke to people about my new skills and interests, the more people I encountered who told me they, or someone they knew, would also benefit from some assistance. This started growing slowly and shifted from being a side gig for me (or my &#8216;paid hobby&#8217; as I sometimes called it!) to being a &#8216;part-time&#8217; venture alongside my consultancy business. I also started coaching trainee therapists with the College, which I absolutely loved.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2014 <strong>Chris People, Course Facilitator and
