Part Two: Qualifying Course in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy  

The Inter-cultural Psychodynamic Psychotherapy course (D59) represents an innovative development in the teaching of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. The course offers a unique opportunity for students to develop their clinical psychoanalytic skills in the context of inter-cultural psychotherapy. It provides students with the essential skills necessary for working therapeutically with adults in the NHS in multicultural Britain.

Who is this course for?

This course is open to graduates from the Foundation Course in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (D58) at NSCAP or elsewhere. 

Students are drawn from a wide variety of backgrounds - they are usually practicing professionals in a clinical field or wishing to develop clinical therapeutic skills.

This course is of particular interest to those wishing to develop their clinical skills in the context of intercultural practice. 

Because of the course's fresh approach, it will also be of interest to those who have already qualified as BPC psychotherapists, but may wish to enhance their practice and attend for the purposes of CPD.
 

The course takes place weekly on a Wednesday in Leeds.
