The Decider Skills for Self Help

The Decider Skills for Self Help Online Course helps increase coping and confidence and improves mental health. The CBT skills are evidence based and effective. You can learn in your own time, at your own pace. You also have the option for an individual follow up session with a therapist on completion.

The Decider Skills are winning strategies for mental health.  32 effective skills designed to help you manage your emotions and to make positive changes.  We have simplified complex theory into user-friendly, practical, memorable and effective skills.

 

The key to good mental health is similar to good physical health: monitoring and management.  We can learn to recognise and monitor our own thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and then use skills to manage ourselves and make effective changes as required.

You can study The Decider Skills for Self Help (32 or 12 skills) in your own time, at any time - about 6 or 20 hours of study at your own pace. 

The Decider Skills are a stand-alone intervention to enable you to make positive changes in your life. 

They will also give you a firm foundation if you decide to start individual  therapy. The Decider Skills complement all therapy approaches. 

The Decider Skills enable you to:

  • Face common life challenges
  • Make sense of problems
  • Make positive changes in how you think and react
  • Tolerate distress
  • Be more mindful
  • Manage emotions including anxiety, low mood, anger and stress
  • Improve communication and relationships
  • Increase resilience and wellbeing

I was lucky enough to have received the 32 skills through my psychiatric nurse last year. This course has genuinely changed my life and I use the principles every single day. 2 decades of mental health issues and this course was the turning point for me. I was given the tools to identify why I acted and felt the way I did. I now plan to continually improve my skills and use them with my two young children. Thank you so much for developing this amazing and genuinely life saving set of skills.    Kim from Lothian
