2025 CACBT CONFERENCE
•
2025 CACBT CONFERENCE •
The next CACBT hybrid conference will take place in Banff, Alberta, from May 1-3, 2025, with the theme:
"Navigating Rocky Relationships"
Attendees can look forward to a diverse lineup of expert speakers presenting on a broad range of relationship issues, including supporting parents with young adults who have failed to launch, addressing clients’ sexual difficulties when you are not a sex therapist, addressing clients’ relationships with food and body image, helping clients improve co-regulation to improve their relationships, and applications of compassion-focused ACT. Students and full members are invited to submit abstracts for posters, which now includes a new “open paper” format that allows presenters to share their work in a 10-minute talk. Please note that there are limited spots available for the open paper presentations.
Note: The Continuing Education Credits are currently pending approval from the CPA. We will provide an update as soon as the approval is received.
