Overview

Module aims and purpose

As per High Intensity national curriculum (July 2022):聽

鈥淭his module will develop skills in CBT for depression to an advanced level, improving proficiency in the fundamental techniques of CBT, developing competency in the specialist techniques used in the treatment of depression. Specific cognitive and behavioural models of depression, empirical evidence, and assessment and specialist cognitive and behavioural treatment strategies will be covered in workshops. The clinical workshops will provide trainees with a strong foundation in the evidence base for CBT with depression and address the most up to date research methods.鈥澛

Module learning outcomes

By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to:聽

  1. Develop practical competency in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for depression and apply to their own caseload in practice聽聽聽
  2. Develop critical knowledge in the theoretical and research literature for cognitive and behavioural models with depression.聽聽
  3. Develop a critical understanding of the phenomenology, diagnostic classifications and epidemiological characteristics of depressive disorders.聽
  4. Assess patients with depression, considering clinical manifestations, co-morbidity, history, present life situation, course and outcome of depression in determining suitability for CBT.聽
  5. Assess risk factors associated with depression and the integration of risk management within treatment plans.聽聽
  6. Assess suicidal risk and self-harming behaviours and implement practical strategies for managing suicidality and self-harm聽

Module content

The module will include teaching on key, evidence-based protocols for treating depression such as Cognitive Therapy by Beck and Behavioural Activation by Martell. Working with diverse groups will also be covered, such as working with clients living with long term physical health conditions, or with learning disabilities.聽聽

Workshops will consist of information giving, tutor demonstrations, role-play, skills practice, experiential exercises, comparative video illustration and case demonstrations. Experiential exercises will encourage self-reflection and increase in self-awareness and skill acquisition. Sessions will also incorporate a focus on self-reflection and therapists鈥 beliefs and the ways in which these may benefit or interfere with therapy.聽

Structure

Teaching and learning methods

Experiential and skills-based workshops provide students with a strong foundation in the clinical procedures of CBT, addressing the most up-to-date research developments.聽

Skills-based competencies will be developed through small group experiential work and role plays in workshops, group supervision by course members and individual/group supervision in the place of work.聽

On-going clinical supervision is provided by members of the course team and at the place of work. Case management and problem-based learning will be facilitated through a combination of course and work-based supervision.聽

Self-directed study to include general reading for each course and preparatory reading for each session. Web-based resources will be available to allow students to see examples of clinical therapy sessions and clinical demonstrations of specific techniques.聽

This module is taught twice to two different cohorts of students - first in Semester 1 and Semester 2 and then repeated in Semester 2 and Summer Vacation.聽The 200 study hours are listed for the first iteration of teaching in Semester 1 and Semester 2, and these same study hours are repeated for the second iteration of teaching in Semester 2 and Summer Vacation.聽

Study hours

At least 69 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online. You will receive further details about how these hours will be delivered before the start of the module.
