MBCT Master Class

• Details of the activity

A master class facilitated by Dr. Divyangna Yadav was arranged by the Department of Clinical Psychology of IIS (deemed to be University) for the PDCP trainees (2024-25). Dr. Divyangna Yadav's expertise and passion for the subject matter were evident throughout the class. Her ability to engage participants and create an inclusive learning environment contributed significantly to the overall success of the program.

The master class on MBCT focused on introducing the attendees to the concepts and techniques of MBCT. As aspiring clinical psychologists, trainees were informed of the breakdown of sessions and manner in which techniques and homework are introduced to the patients. The session was interactive, engaging and included activity based learning. During the workshop they were introduced to mindfulness and actively guided through mindfulness exercises by the resource person which was helpful and inspiring. Interactive sessions allowed them to clarify doubts regarding therapy and gain a deeper understanding of the same. Clarity was achieved through working on a case and role playing working with that case.

                           Overall, the class facilitated by Dr. Divyangna Yadav was a highly enriching and transformative experience. Her expertise, combined with her engaging facilitation style, made for a dynamic learning environment where participants were able to deepen their understanding of MBCT. It was grateful for the trainees to participate in this class and they will look forward to applying the knowledge and skills gained in my professional practice.
