COTTRAUX, Jean  y  MATOS, Margarida Gaspar de. European model for the training and supervision in cognitive-behavioral therapies for mental health professionals. Rev. bras.ter. cogn. [online]. 2007, vol.3, n.1, pp.49-61. ISSN 1808-5687.

Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) requires the development of specific social skills and the awareness of the influence of the therapist’s cognitions and emotions on the therapeutic process. A historical perspective on the evolution of CBT is presented, within the unfolding of the concept of mental health, followed by an update made on the works dealing with the modification of the therapist’s emotions and cognitions along the supervision process, according to social learning and cognitive psychology principles. New insights on the problem of therapeutic alliance are presented, understood as a collaborative relationship. A three-level supervision and training model regarding the difficulty levels of clinical problems is proposed. We also suggest a broad concept of therapeutic relationship that has implications on training and supervision. The therapist´s role is to help the patient become autonomous, help him to increase his personal and social competences in order to be able to manage his life. We describe the model of training and supervision used in France, at the University Claude Bernard, Lyon I, which gives access to the European Association for Cognitive Behavior Therapy, through the French Association, proposed as guidelines for training and supervision in CBT.
