¡Su Doctora Está Dentro! (Your doctor is in!)

Low-intensity CBT is a worldwide movement that for the last two decades has been training laypeople to deliver mental health care in their local communities – for pennies on the dollar that such care traditionally costs.

Last week I had the pleasure of site visit to our LICBT program in California’s Pomona Valley. Training there began this spring and for the last two months our lay therapists have been seeing clients. We are tracking outcomes for their work and the results are most encouraging. For the first time Spanish speaking Valley residents can now access affordable, world-class care delivered in their first language.
