What is TESTING in TEAM-CBT? (Not just paperwork)

Many people view therapy as a space for conversation and emotional breakthroughs, but the TEAM-CBT model, developed by Dr. David D. Burns, incorporates a crucial, and often overlooked, element: Testing. This approach goes beyond traditional symptom tracking and uses brief, standardized scales to measure a client's symptoms and evaluate the session's effectiveness before and after every meeting.

This video explores what Testing is, why it's a foundational component of TEAM-CBT, and how it differs from other therapeutic models. You'll discover how this process can transform therapy by inspiring hope, leading to better client outcomes, and strengthening the therapeutic alliance. By providing a "GPS for the therapeutic journey," Testing helps therapists and clients celebrate real progress and address issues with greater precision, turning paperwork into a powerful tool for faster healing.
