MSc Psychological Therapy in Primary Care

Mental Health Services across the UK are facing a growing demand for therapeutic services to treat common mental health disorders. The NHS commitment to delivering evidence-based treatments means that the theoretical focus of this course is CBT. The course has been jointly devised by NHS clinicians and clinical academics at the University of Dundee Medical School and the University of Stirling's Division of Psychology. Youll undergo training and clinical supervision within the NHS. The course will develop your knowledge of the prevalence, diagnostic criteria, presentation, and treatment of common mental health disorders within a CBT framework. Youll develop the abilities to meet a range of performance targets safely while responding constructively to clinical supervision and in line with professional and ethical guidelines.

Applicants should hold an honors degree in Psychology (2:1 or above) conferring the Graduate Basis for Chartership (GBC) with the British Psychological Society (BPS).
