Overview

Why choose Psychological Therapies and Interventions MSc/PGDip at Middlesex?

This course will provide you with the academic, practical and research skills you need for further professional training in clinical psychology, counselling psychology, psychotherapy, clinical research, and health management.

You will be introduced to a range of approaches to psychological therapy and intervention, and will be supported to develop a range of therapeutic communication and intervention skills both in workshops and through work experience.

As part of the master's degree, you will also acquire the knowledge and skills required to critically assess research in therapeutic psychology and to carry out your own research on a topic that is relevant to psychological therapies or interventions. You'll be taught by staff who are therapy practitioners and researchers in mental health, psychological wellbeing and trauma.

There is also the option of undertaking a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychological Therapies and Interventions (which involves completing all modules except the dissertation module, and gaining 120 credits), or undertaking a PG Certificate in Psychological Interventions (gaining 60 credits through completion of two modules; the Counselling and Psychotherapy, and Trauma Impact and Interventions modules).
