The aim of this course is to enable students to acquire fundamental knowledge about the psychological structure and functioning of the human being, particularly within the framework of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to gain personal awareness regarding the role of a psychotherapist, and to develop basic skills for establishing a psychotherapeutic relationship. Furthermore, students will gain the ability to ask appropriate questions and formulate the responses meaningfully, and to develop the competence to make appropriate interventions in the therapeutic process.

Course Notes
|
Your written assignments and the consistency of your in-class performance will be evaluated together. I expect all assignments to be in Times New Roman 12 point font with 1.5 line spacing. Assignments that do not comply with these formatting rules will be considered invalid. Excessively low or high word counts will result in a deduction from your score. After the exam, if your performance does not meet your expectations, do not request a retake or a new assignment. Emails regarding the exam will not be answered. Requests to improve your grade or obtain additional points (for scholarships, achieving a degree, etc.) will not be considered.
