Introduction

Take your TEAM CBT skills to the next level. This Level 2 training dives deeper into the TEAM framework, equipping you with advanced tools to navigate complex cases, foster breakthroughs, and address even the most resistant clients. You’ll explore sophisticated cognitive, behavioral, and motivational methods, building on the foundation of Level 1 to create transformative therapy experiences.

At Meta Counsel, our commitment to deliberate practice ensures you not only learn but master these techniques. Through immersive role plays, case discussions, and expert feedback, you’ll refine your skills and emerge ready to deliver data-driven, high-impact therapy.

Why Advance to Level 2?

The world’s most effective therapists never stop learning. TEAM CBT has been shown to accelerate recovery rates while addressing client resistance—one of the most significant barriers in traditional therapy. Studies from the Feeling Good Institute confirm that TEAM CBT achieves faster outcomes, with many clients experiencing significant relief in as few as 6–8 sessions.

This advanced training goes beyond foundational skills, teaching you to integrate complex methods like Cognitive Exposure, the Feared Fantasy Technique, and advanced Agenda Setting tools to address resistance, anxiety, depression, and more. At Meta Counsel, we also emphasize relapse prevention, recognizing that no client is inoculated for life.
