Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in Oxford
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is an evidence-
based form of psychotherapy. As a result of its proven
effectiveness, it has become very widely used in the
National Health Service in the UK, and around the world,
particularly as a recommended treatment for common
mental health problems such as depression and anxiety
disorders.
Oxford has a worldwide reputation as a centre of
excellence for developing clinical practice, training,
supervision and research in CBT, and the Oxford Cognitive
Therapy Centre (OCTC) has been at the heart of those
developments.
OCTC is part of the Oxford Health NHS Foundation
trust and for over 15 years has offered high quality CBT
training programmes in collaboration with the University
of Oxford Department for Continuing Education.
As well as these Programmes, OCTC also offers an
extensive series of open training events and offers
clinical supervision.

DPhil in Cognitive Behavioural TherapyCourse Director: Dr Freda McManus and Mr David Westbrook
This programme offers the opportunity to undertake a
significant piece of research in the broad field of CBT.
The topic of a DPhil in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
should have a significant focus on issues related to
cognitive behaviour therapy theory or practice e.g.
developing some aspect of the cognitive behavioural
understanding of a particular disorder, developing an
aspect of the cognitive behavioural treatment methods
or their application to a disorder, or theoretical or
methodological issues in relation to cognitive behavioural
practice. A DPhil in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
should focus on a primary research topic relevant to
the theory, principles and practice of interventions that
fall under the umbrella of cognitive behavioural theory
or interventions, including both group and individual
treatments, third wave approaches and self-help based
approaches.
