The course instructors have been delivering IPT training for over ten years and have delivered IPT Practitioner & Supervisor training across the UK, Europe and in North America.

She is now the training director for CYP IAPT at UCL/King’s College London and Reading University and author of the national curriculum for IPT-A training in CYP IAPT and "Defeating Depression - How to use the people in your life to open the door to recovery." (Constable & Robinson Pubs, 2013).
Aim of the course:
The five day course will provide experienced mental health professionals with an introduction to the IPT model. The course will cover the knowledge competencies for IPT with depression and an introduction to the skills competencies, which will be developed more fully in supervised clinical casework. The course provides an overview of modifications of IPT for use with adolescent populations and with eating disorders and it application with anxiety disorders.
Who is the course suitable for?
Applicants should have a mental health qualification and at least two years post qualification experience of providing psychological therapy for people with mental health problems. Applicants, who have completed two years full time training in delivering psychological therapies e.g. final year clinical psychology trainees, are also welcome to apply. Applicants with a range of training backgrounds are welcome e.g. clinical and counselling psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, nurse therapists, social workers, occupational therapists, and GP’s. IAPT staff can attend this course and should indicate that they require IAPT compliant training when applying. The course is not suitable for applicants who wish to acquire basic therapeutic skills.
Supervision
The course provides the first stage in working towards becoming an IPT UK Accredited IPT Practitioner. Following attendance on the course those wishing to become IPT practitioners are required to undertake supervision with an IPT UK accredited Supervisor. IAPT staff must arrange supervision that follows the IPT IAPT protocol and must confirm the supervision arrangement before attending the course. Supervision must be arranged directly with the supervisor and will involve an additional fee. Supervision can be provided face to face or remotely e.g. telephone, Skype. Trainees can be directed to qualified supervisors across the IPT UK network.
Testimonials:
"Roslyn is a very engaging lecturer and kept my attention throughout. As well as this, despite only having 5 days, I felt I gained a real insight into the principles and basic techniques of IPT, which piqued my interest further and made me want to pursue it further as a new and useful approach within my local mental health service."
