Overview of CBT Teaching, D Clin Psy, University of Exeter
Convenor: Dr Kim Wright (K.A.Wright@exeter.ac.uk)
2014 intake: Updated August 2016
Overview
Overall learning objectives:
• To attain a good understanding of the theory and evidence base underpinning Cognitive Behavioural therapeutic approaches, including its strengths and limitations.
• To become familiar with core therapeutic techniques used across and within different problem areas and client groups, and to attain a basis for developing competence in these through the clinical practice elements of the programme.
• To gain an appreciation of the place of cognitive behavioural therapy within the practice of Clinical Psychology.
• To develop an awareness of areas for individual professional development within cognitive behavioural understanding and practice, both during training and post qualification.
The CBT teaching spans approximately 47 centrally taught sessions across the DClinPsy programme, with an additional 6 unfacilitated study sessions. In addition, CBT is covered within sessions that form part of other teaching strands.
The content of the sessions is informed by the British Psychological Society competencies for doctoral programmes in Clinical Psychology, the UCL CBT competencies frameworks, the IAPT high intensity curriculum and emerging SMI curricula and the Health Professions Council Standards of Proficiency.
The present curriculum aims to provide coverage of basic and specific competencies, with generic competencies being covered by both the CBT strand and teaching provided within the Psychological Therapies strand (Core Skills sessions) as well as the Reflective Organisational Practice strand. The CBT strand provides some coverage of the problem-specific competencies. Some elements of the problem-specific competencies are covered in other strands (such as the Adult strand), whilst some teaching on client-group specific CBT work is covered in lifespan strands (for example, using CBT when working with people with learning difficulties). Where applicable, the generic, basic, specific and problem-specific competencies addressed by each session are listed in the session descriptions below. In addition, where applicable the items from the IAPT high intensity curriculum covered by each session are listed in the session descriptions below.
The structure and delivery of the CBT teaching is informed by the requirements of the BABCP for individual accreditation as a CBT practitioner, and we provide trainees with a substantial proportion of the taught hours required by BABCP for accreditation as a CBT practitioner on an individual level. In keeping with the criteria for accreditation with BABCP, the majority of our teaching is skills-based. We note that additional requirements for individual-level accreditation specify hours of supervised practice and completed cases. Whilst this cannot be provided by the taught element of the DClinPsy course, trainees wishing to pursue secondary accreditation are encouraged to develop a portfolio of relevant clinical experience through placement-based activities with CBT practitioners.
