Content

Building on HPS977, Psychological Intervention 1, this is both a theoretical and practical unit that provides the opportunity for students to evaluate the evidence base for, and to develop skills in the delivery of a range of therapies for children and adolescents. At the commencement of the unit, students will learn how to modify evidence-based interventions such as CBT, for use within younger populations. The unit will then focus on interventions for issues common to this population including behavioural disorders, eating disorders and developmental disorders. A major focus will be on the development of therapy skills through the use of virtual simulation, case-based analysis and role play.
