Description
Content: This module aims to build on CWPs and EMHPs existing knowledge and skills in delivering low intensity interventions for mild-moderate mental health problems and expanding the scope and breadth of the conditions that low intensity can work with. Trainee SWPs will receive teaching and training in delivering low intensity evidence-based interventions for working with a broader range of more complex and disorder specific models with common mild-moderate mental health problems.
Teaching delivery: Teaching days are a combination of both in-person and online sessions. Lectures and skills-based workshops form the core teaching, and these are developed further in Practice Tutor Groups (PTGs). Students are expected to video record their supervision sessions and share these as part of small group learning and reflective practice.
