Our goal is simple: To provide high quality competency-based training and supervision for mental health service providers
We have a wealth of experience in providing skills-based training, clinical supervision and consultancy
We have a track record of producing competent, work ready health professionals. We have adapted NHS TTAD training from the UK to Australian health settings. This includes high intensity and low intensity CBT training. We have successfully adapted our CBT curriculum to primary care, children & young people, older persons and other mental health issues
Clinical supervision is key to embedding competencies into mental health services. In addition it has a clear clinical governance role and safeguarding function for organisations, staff and service users. Regular supervision ensures skills acquisition and fidelity to evidence based practices. We also provide intensive training for clinical supervisor training for mental health professionals
We offer expert advice and scaffolding for organisations aiming to develop evidence-based services. This includes frameworks for service delivery, supervision, clinical governance and risk management.
