Course summary

This programme has been developed in response to local, national and international agendas around the increased role of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in healthcare provision.

Course overview

Gain an understanding of how scientific principles inform CBT clinical practice, and how evidence is generated, retrieved, evaluated and employed. Extend your CBT knowledge and skills, developing competencies in specialist techniques applied to depression and anxiety disorders.

Advance your practice by critical analysing, synthesing and applying relevant underpinning theories. Undertake an academic journey of personal and professional development in a supportive, student-centred environment. Your previous experience provides the platform for you to develop in a global context. The final part of the course is based around enhancing academic credibility through research awareness.

If you already have a postgraduate diploma in CBT, you may apply to be considered for advanced standing to the final part of the MSc in this programme. The course is approved by the British Association for Cognitive and Behavioural Psychotherapies (BABCP).

Work placement

Within clinical practice you deliver cognitive behavioural therapy interventions under the supervision of a BABCP-accredited supervisor. You work with a range of service users with depression and anxiety disorders to fulfil all criteria for your final portfolio. Clinical practice enables you to develop cognitive behavioural therapy competence across various mental health disorders. As a candidate you’re expected to work in an appropriate clinical area before applying to the programme.

Career opportunities

The role of the cognitive behavioural therapist is becoming increasingly prominent in modern healthcare. As a graduate you have opportunities in both statutory and non-statutory mental health services.
