Abstract Objective. To explore GPs' experiences using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), with a focus on factors that promote or limit the use of CBT in general practice. Design. Qualitative study using data from written evaluation reports and focus-group interviews. Setting. Norwegian general practice. Subjects. GPs who participated in a longitudinal CBT course in the continuous medical education (CME) programme for GPs in Norway, of whom 19 filled in evaluation forms and 15 participated in focus-group interviews. Main outcome measures. Experiences with the use of CBT in general practice. Results. GPs used CBT mainly in the treatment of patients with anxiety disorders and depression. Factors that promoted the use of CBT in general practice were structured supervision and group counselling, receiving feedback on individual video-recorded consultations, and experiencing that one mastered the therapeutic techniques. Limiting factors were that it took some time before one mastered the techniques, lack of eligible patients, constraints related to attending group supervision during office hours, and the lack of financial incentives to use CBT in general practice. Conclusion. Tailored training programmes in CBT for GPs may contribute to more frequent use of CBT in general practice. A formal recognition of CBT in the reimbursement scheme for GPs might counter limiting factors to an increased use of CBT in general practice. |
