Personality disorder programme No longer a diagnosis of exclusion

Berkshire Complex Needs Network (BCNN) is pleased to announce a new training programme – MSc in Psychological Interventions with Personality Disorder – to be delivered in Berkshire Healthcare Foundation Trust by BCNN. This two year, part time course offers a wide range of clinical placements alongside a taught programme by experienced clinicians. The interventions will include mentalization-based treatment, psychodynamic approaches (both group and individual), CBT-based treatment, therapeutic community approaches and other models. It will also include a module on working with teams and services whose service users include people with PD. We are currently accepting applications for October 2010.
