Attaining and maintaining the psychotherapeutic and supervision competencies is a core value in the field of cognitive behavioral therapy.

PUBMED data base was searched for articles using the key words „cognitive behavioral therapy”, „competence“, „therapeutic relations”,

„intervention”, „technique”, „training”, „supervision”, „self-reflection“, „empirically supported”, „transference”, „countertransference“,

„schema therapy“, „dialectical behavioral therapy“. The search was repeated by changing the key word. No language or time constraints

were applied. The lists of references of articles detected by this computer data base search were examined manually to find additional

articles. We also used the original texts of Beck, Beck, Padesky, Linehan, Leahy, Young, Kuyken, and others. Basically this is a review with

conclusions about competencies in cognitive behavioral therapy.

countertransference, schema therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy.

Keywords: cognitive behavioral therapy, training, supervision, competency, cube model, foundational competencies, specific competencies, supervisory competencies, therapeutic relation, intervention, technique, self-reflection, empirically supported, transference,
