CBT, Motivational Interviewing & Mindfulness for weight management

The aim of this course is to provide you with an outline how CBT, MI and Mindfulness can be applied to help your clients with weight management. Over the last decade, the field of behavior change has encouraged the integration of different forms of evidence-based treatments by identifying their general factors and shared elements and applying them across multiple behaviours.

Obesity is a major health risk and underlying psychological factors, such as anxiety, stress, mood disorder and self-esteem can be the root cause of the failure to lose weight and keep it off. Psychological interventions are key to engage individuals in lifestyle modification and motivate them to achieve weight loss in sustainable and successful manner. Psychotherapies for obesity typically could help people achieve successful weight loss by reducing dysfunctional behaviours and restructuring cognitive processes. CBT has been recognised as the best-established treatment for obesity and is considered to be the first-line treatment among psychological approaches.
