OverviewThis module aims to develop the capacity to review, critically assess and synthesise a body of psychological knowledge related to clinical presentations commonly encountered in a range of adult settings. This level of understanding is recognised as being fundamental to the provision of effective and meaningful treatment interventions. Trainees are expected to engage in self-directed learning to complement taught elements.
Learning Outcomes1. A comprehensive psychological understanding and knowledge base in relation to a range of clinical presentations and different forms of psychological distress, commonly encountered in a range of adult settings, and an understanding of implications for assessment, formulation and treatment protocols.
2. This will include those experiencing difficulty in relation to: common mental health presentations (e.g. anxiety and depression); severe and enduring mental health presentations (e.g. hearing voices, psychosis, complex trauma); physical health presentations and issues related to adjustment and coping across the life-span; presentations of older adulthood (e.g. related to developmental changes and psychosocial adaptation, losses to cognitive functioning); specialist clinical presentations which could present across the life span and in combination with other presentations such as substance misuse, addictive behaviours, eating disorders, personality disorders.
3. In practice trainees will often work with complex and co-morbid presentations and thus will be required to synthesise the relevance of any single presentation knowledge base for transtheoretical application.
4. Have developed an ability to integrate multiple theoretical perspectives and knowledge bases to inform treatment across this range of presentations.
5. Have developed a critical and reflective evidence-based approach, and a practice based on the integration of theory, clinical work and evaluation.
