Overview

This module covers the requirement to compile a practice portfolio across two modules detailing evidence of:

Client contact hours, (100) Supervision log (20 hours) and a supervisor report Teaching log and reflections on learning (including private study) (400 hours)

This evidence matches that required for BABCP accreditation.

Topics covered in PHP4301 and PHP4014 will include: preparation for and use of supervision, reflective practice and application of theory to practice.

Supervision (20 hours) will be provided during semesters 1 and 2. Constructive use of peer and individual CBT supervision is an integral component of the module with the aim of maximizing clinical application, reflection, and evaluation to facilitate a Scientist / Practitioner approach to clinical practice.

Assessment Strategy

-threshold 50%> Adequate reflection but largely descriptive with no real development or discussion. Understanding of the main concepts in applying the CBT model. Limited analysis showing only obvious points of evaluation and linking theory and practice experience. Limited range of reading. Highly limited originality in approach, interpretation and/or voice. Acceptable presentation and appropriate expression. Attempt correct format and appropriate referencing style.

-good -60%> Reasonably presented reflection that is well organized and structured, demonstrating a good understanding of the application of the CBT model. Clear understanding and mostly free of factual errors. Appropriate intervention/s to client problems based on an understanding of the CBT model. Some analysis showing evaluation and synthesis of ideas linking theory and practice experience. Some originality in approach, interpretation and/or voice. Some independent reading. Coherent arguments with evidence for some claims. Focused and well structured. Good presentation with accurate and appropriate expression. Mostly correct format in appropriate referencing style.

-excellent -70%> Comprehensive reflection, demonstrating clarity of argument and expression with depth of insight into CBT and its evidence base and human development. Detailed understanding with no factual errors. Comprehensive solutions to client problems presented based on a solid CBT conceptualisation of problems. Critical analysis showing evaluation and synthesis of ideas linking theory and practice experience. Originality in approach, interpretation and/or voice. Extensive independent reading. Logically defended arguments with evidence for all claims. Highly focused and well structured. Excellent presentation with accurate and appropriate expression. Correct format in appropriate referencing style.

Learning Outcomes

• Assess and evaluate own level of CBT skill development with reference to the Roth and Pilling Competence Framework for CBT.

• Identify and apply professional standards i.e., BABCP standards into clinical practice.

• Prepare a bespoke case formulation and use peer and individual CBT supervision to develop skills and interventions.

• Reflect on own learning and application to practice.
