Course summary

This Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) programme aims to provide a structured training where you can systematically acquire the knowledge and skills needed to practise as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist.The programme will progressively build your confidence and competence to take you from a novice to skilled practitioner.Both the MSc and PGDip pathways are designed as professional training in CBT, aligned with the standards of the relevant accrediting bodies. You will be equipped to work towards accreditation with the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy (for the PGDip route) and British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (for the MSc route) dependant on your individual experience.Uniquely on this course, students will be strongly encouraged to evaluate Cognitive Behavioural theory and practice, which will include an emphasis on understanding the relationship of CBT to other psychotherapeutic modalities and on the tailoring of interventions to individual needs. As such this training in CBT is presented within a broader framework of critical and positive psychology.The course also aims to develop your understanding of the impact of contextual and structural factors, particularly in terms of the impact of inherent power differentials, upon the formation and resolution of individual psychological difficulties. This also includes the influence of contextual factors upon the practice of CBT itself and the examination of the way in which CBT can contribute to the prevention and amelioration of the negative impact of these.This is the Professional Route, open only to those with a core profession (eg social workers, nurses, teachers, psychologists). It provides the professional qualification criteria in the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) accreditation process.
