Overview
You will gain clinical training opportunities through industry practicums modelled around a clinical supervision framework.
Competency-based assessment programs, seminars and workshops are delivered by respected and recognised clinical and research academics, and guest lecturers who are experts in CBT. You will have opportunities to translate knowledge of high-prevalence psychological disorders, comorbid mental health and related disorders, resilience and strengths-based interventions, as well as behavioural activation and motivational interviewing in an applied interdisciplinary learning environment.
The courses are suited to new allied health graduates and health professionals who are committed to ongoing professional development and personal growth using accountable evidence-based treatments and practice principles. They are suitable preparation for those interested in pursuing private practice, or advancing their knowledge and skills in CBT. Collectively, these courses offer developing, expanding and advanced levels of qualification through an integrated program of theory, clinical practicums and research.
