Entry requirements

Applicants must be employed by a healthcare organisation that expects them to be seeing clients; must be registered to practice with a regulatory professional body e.g. Health Professions Council, General Medical Council, Nursing & Midwifery Council, Professional Standards Authority. If a person does not have a professional registration but they have been employed in a role for two years that requires that they deliver psychological interventions under supervision, we will consider them for training provided their clinical supervisor is part of the DBT team and is Intensively Trained and is registered with a professional body. Applicants will be expected to be delivering a minimum of 2 days a week to the delivery of DBT in their clinical practice.
