One in four adults in the UK will experience mental illness in their lifetime.*

On this course, you’ll learn how to support individuals and make a real difference to their mental health and wellbeing. You'll develop your knowledge and practice of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and develop the skills you’ll need to work as a CBT (high-intensity) practitioner.

Our Cognitive Behavioural Therapy MSc aims to provide you with a clear understanding of cognitive-behavioural concepts, models, and methods by focusing on the evidence-based treatment of depression and anxiety disorders. Upon graduation, you'll be prepared to work as a therapist with the ability and confidence to use what you have learned in a safe and effective way.

Our course gives you the opportunity to put the therapeutic skills you've learned into practice during your weekly clinical supervision sessions. You'll receive dedicated support and expert teaching from a team of accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapists with a wide range of experience across primary and secondary care.
