Course summary
Our Low Intensity Psychological Therapies PGCert provides you with the skills to assess and treat patients. You'll use brief, evidence-based psychological approaches for the treatment of mental health problems. This includes depression and anxiety.
Overview
This course is part of the Increasing Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme which trains Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners (PWPs) for NHS employment.
The Department of Health's IAPT programme is an innovative approach to mental health. You'll train to become a practitioner who helps those experiencing depression and anxiety. You'll do this through the use of evidence-based psychological therapies.
Low-intensity treatments use brief, cognitive behavioural therapy approaches. Practitioners offer a therapeutic intervention to help patients with their mental health. They may also engage with other services that will help them in their recovery.
