Notice Information

Notice Title

COGNITIVE ANALYTIC THERAPY

Notice Description

The NHS Long Term Plan sets out a commitment to new and integrated models of primary and community mental health care. A new community-based offer will include access to psychological therapies, improved physical health care, employment support, personalised and trauma-informed care, medicines management and support for self-harm and coexisting substance use. This includes maintaining and developing new services for people who have the most complex needs and proactive work to address racial disparities. As part of this development, there is a need to expand the adult community workforce by over 10,000 staff. Transformation and expansion will include increasing access to evidence-based psychological therapies - which will mean extended training for existing and new staff across a range of NICE-recommended modalities. Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) Practitioner training enables core mental health professionals with competence in their own field to enhance their understanding and skills in a specific psychological therapy by learning the theory and methods of CAT as an individual therapy applied to adult mental health, as well as introduction to CAT in groups and consultation settings. The course takes a minimum of two years to complete and is assessed, leading to accreditation as a CAT Practitioner and eligibility for full membership of Association of Cognitive Analytic Therapy (ACAT). The course provides mental health professionals with competence as a psychological therapist in the full use of CAT with individuals and, with appropriate supervision, contextual CAT and CAT in client groups. CAT is a transdiagnostic method which does not rely on medical diagnostic categories, however, these clients would be likely to meet criteria for diagnoses of 'Borderline Personality Disorder', or 'Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder'. Health Education England (HEE) has been working with stakeholders to develop a national curriculum for CAT. HEE is now seeking education providers to deliver training against the national curriculum. HEE is aiming to commission multiple education providers to deliver practitioner training against the national curriculum for CAT.
