ACADEMY OF COGNITIVE THERAPY CERTIFICATION: Cognitive therapy, as developed by Aaron T. Beck, M.D., and refined by him and his colleagues, is the
primary empirically validated psychotherapy model.There has been confusion in the distinction between psychotherapy which incorporates some cognitive techniques, and cognitive therapy
which is based on a cognitive conceptualization. Many therapists identify themselves as cognitive therapists when their practice does not reflect such an orientation.
Consumers, agencies, insurance companies, and researchers may be misled by this self-appellation. ACT awards certificates to individuals who have demonstrated an advanced knowledge
of the theory of cognitive therapy and expertise in its practice. ACT is multidisciplinary and includes mental health professionals from around the world. Founding Fellows include
internationally recognized leaders in the field. Individuals who apply for membership must document training and demonstrate expertise in cognitive therapy and their postgraduate
education.They are required to submit a written case summary with cognitive conceptualizations and audiotapes of actual sessions to be rated by the
Credentialing Committee. Certification provides a number of significant benefits, which are described in detail on the ACT web site. Given these rigorous requirements, we expect that ACT
certification will become the 'gold standard' in the field and will allow the professional and business communities and the public to identify highly skilled cognitive therapists now and in the
future. For more information on certification in C.T.or its use in counseling, psychiatry, psychotherapy and/or mental health therapy please click on one of the following links: Beck Institute or
the Academy of Cognitive Therapy.
Cognitive therapy was originially developed for treatment of depression. It was first expanded into the treatment of anxiety disorders and is now empirically supported as the premier
psychotherapeutic treatment and the most researched and proven treatment for a wide variety of mental health and psychiatric problems.In recent years, science has shown that treatment
with C.T. alone or in combination with medication has the best outcomes for depression, anxiety, panic, anger, ADHD, alcohol and other substance misuse problems, stress disorders such as
PTSD, bipolar disorder, eating disorders and OCD (Obsessive compulsive disorder).According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, in contrast to many other therapies,
cognitive-behavioral therapy for the treatment of substance abuse disorders has substantial research evidence in support of its effectiveness. For more information on specific outcomes please go to
the Academy of Cognitive Therapy website.
