CBT Diploma Level 10

The Centre of Therapy has offered CBT training for three decades.

Our diplomas are delivered over a period of two years, 40 weeks in each year, beginning in September and finishing in June. This includes an annual summer break during the months of July and August.

The diplomas provide full professional training which enables our students to graduate as fully qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapists at the end of the two years. They achieve all the specified training requirements for accreditation with COSCA, BACP and BABCP, depending on the course level.

Practical training is vital. Students must complete 100 hours of clinically supervised professional CBT practice during the course. These practice hours will be accumulated through placement with a recognised organisation within the field of counselling and psychotherapy.

The 100 practice hours can be split between 80 hours of one-to-one work and 20 hours of groupwork, or 70 hours of one-to-one work and 30 hours of groupwork.

To support students in their practice and ensure their continuing fitness to practise, they must receive regular professional clinical supervision. The cost of 30 hours clinical supervision is included within the course fees.

At the Centre of Therapy and Counselling Studies we continually evaluate research in psychotherapy, and specifically CBT, to ensure that our courses remain current and relevant.
