Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT): Utilizing the DEEP Assessment to Target Couples Distress
Copyright :
IBCT is a widely used evidence-based treatment for couples that was adopted by the US Department of Veteran’s Affairs as its evidence-based treatment for couple distress. The DEEP analysis guides the assessment of couples, feedback to them, and treatment of them in Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT). Learn how to use this easy to implement assessment tool in couples therapy to target the issues couples need addressed. Additional training, supervision, and consultation beyond this single workshop would be required for independent application and implementation of these techniques.
