Nous is committed to offering its students a scientific, professional and personal cognitive psychotherapy focused on four priorities.
- Learning a theoretical knowledge of methods and therapeutic techniques cognitivist clinically and scientifically based and at the same time develop skills in critical thinking and rigorous analysis.
- Expanding the therapist's personal awareness : the adventure of endless discovery of themselves, their resources and entire range of human potential.
- Form a solid clinical capacity and profile of professional competence rich to spend on several fronts, which can give credibility, visibility and effectively address the labor market.
- Establishing a supportive network of colleagues and friends who remain in the time as human heritage and professional.
The scientific knowledge and research are in fact essential for a value Nous: why the curriculum is expected systematic study with the study of techniques and methodologies Clinical cognitivist and constructivist arising therefrom. However, in view of the school, scientific knowledge is a condition necessary but not enough for a good psychotherapy practice.
Especially Nous considers essential - to form a therapist who is effective in practice therapeutic concrete - promote the growth of self-reflective capacity in the present moment about their cognitive functioning, emotional and behavioral ( meta-cognition). This is to develop a more intense and continuous self-awareness of the therapist, which proved to be essential to make a difference "during the actual therapeutic experience.
Along with the primary purpose of training - expressed throughout the material science teaching and professional program described in study (see below) - the School also has another purpose.
to bring each student to understand the direct, deep and first-person as a direct inner experience, intuition, imagination and the non-conceptual awareness - in other cultural traditions is called eg. sati (mindfulness) and classical Western philosophical tradition ηους ( nous ) - are a form of knowledge equally crucial that valid and objective knowledge, scientific, based on empirical evidence. Two forms of knowledge more effective it is more interdependent and complementary.
