Here’s what attendees are saying about our SWEET CBT Certificate Course:

"Best webinars I have ever taken! Love this certification program! The entire process was wonderful. Loved this presentation. Very informative. Karen and Mardoche are terrific!" - Michelle LCSW-R

"What stood out was the support for working through resistance and defense. I loved the interactive and the repeating and the warmth. Love you guys. Clear presenting and very engaging! The CBT Certificate Training has completely changed the way I practice." - Lorie, LCSW-R

"This is a powerful 16-session course. Excellent presentations and staff." - Daniel, LMSW

"CBT and Therapy is an essential part of this CBT certification program at SWEET. The tools taught in this webinar are foundational to practicing CBT. I was able to take notes in an outline format that I can see myself using for years with clients with all varieties of complaints, diagnoses, and settings. I thoroughly enjoyed the role-playing in this webinar as it showed me a real example of working with a client on the techniques introduced. Karen's client seemed "real" to me, responding with defiant answers I would expect from someone who is resisting treatment.” - David, LISW

"I would recommend this webinar because it is extremely valuable for the clinician to know and understand cognitive distortions in order to help clients who present with distortions learn about them and understand how they affect their lives, relationships, thinking, feeling, behaviors, and outcomes in their lives. I am grateful that I attended this course today. Overall what works for me with SWEET Institute is the availability of webinars, the interaction, the great respect for the participants/students, the course material, and the generosity of spirit of Karen and Dr. Sidor, in addition to their expertise and knowledge." - Mary Grace, LCSW-R
