Our national conference will provide a great opportunity to engage with national and international thought leaders from across the family of the cognitive behavioural therapies. With this conference we bring together innovative clinical researchers and research clinicians working across the life span.

Thursday and Friday are the Scientific Program, and Saturday is the Workshops - click through for all the details.
