26LC 02 003 BEC - Introduction to CBT-Primary - Welcome to Blackrock Education Centre, Ireland

This webinar introduces the key principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and how they can be used to promote emotional wellbeing, self-awareness, and resilience. Participants will gain a clear understanding of the CBT model and how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact to shape how we experience the world.
Through real examples and reflective exercises, you’ll learn how to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced, realistic alternatives. The session explores how these simple techniques can be applied in both personal and professional contexts — supporting better stress management, emotional regulation, and communication.
Practical and accessible, this session is designed for teachers, SNAs, and education staff who want to strengthen their own wellbeing while gaining a framework to support children and young people in managing everyday challenges more effectively.
