This MSc will prepare you to practice in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (CBP). This type of therapy is one of the leading treatments for a wide range of mental health issues.

Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy (CBP) is recognised by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) as the treatment of choice for a range of mental health issues. Our CBT degree is a progressive professional training programme which will give you the advanced skills and knowledge needed to practice as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist.
