Overview

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based psychological treatment that has been shown to be effective in treating a range of mental health issues, such as depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). This course provides an introduction to CBT, its theoretical background, and practical techniques.

The course is designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of the principles and practices of CBT. It covers the basic principles of CBT, including the role of thoughts, emotions, and behaviours in mental health, as well as the application of CBT in different contexts. The course also introduces the concept of cognitive restructuring, a key technique used in CBT to help clients challenge and modify unhelpful thought patterns.

In addition, the course covers a range of practical skills and techniques used in CBT, such as behavioural activation, exposure therapy, and problem-solving skills. These skills are taught through a combination of theoretical lectures, case studies, and practical exercises. The course also covers the ethical and professional issues related to the practice of CBT.

By the end of the course, students will have gained a comprehensive understanding of CBT and its practical applications. They will be equipped with a range of skills and techniques that they can use in their own practice or as part of a wider healthcare team.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
