MSC in Integrative Psychotherapy
This is a UPCA accredited training which provides students with the academic, clinical and personal learning necessary to achieve registration as a UKCP-registered psychotherapist. Graduates from this programme go on to work as psychotherapists and counsellors in a range of public, private and voluntary sector contexts. The programme prepares students to work effectively with a wide range of adult clients.
You must have a first degree in any subject (minimum classification 2:2) or equivalent. Applicants will usually have completed a face-to-face level 3 qualification in counselling skills. Experience of supporting individuals in a professional, voluntary or personal capacity is usually also required. Those with a 1st degree, but without a level 3 qualification, are encouraged to apply for the Newman Introductory Certificate in Counselling and then, on successful completion, apply for the MSc Integrative Psychotherapy.
Applications will sometimes be considered from those who can demonstrate significant transferrable skills from using counselling skills in a workplace or voluntary setting. Guidelines on how to submit a portfolio of evidence to demonstrate these transferable competencies can be requested from our admissions team.
Applicants who meet the criteria may be invited to demonstrate their personal and academic suitability for undertaking professional training at interview. This will usually take place on line. The programme has a limited number of places and applicants are therefore advised to apply as early as possible in order to be considered. Candidates selected for interview will usually be notified between Feb and June prior to the September start date.
