Cognitive and/or Behavioural Psychotherapists are usually health professionals such as psychologists, psychiatrists, general practitioners, specialists mental health nurses, social workers, counsellors or occupational therapists who have received additional cognitive and/or behavioural therapy training and supervision.

Practitioners vary in skill, training and experience. The British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) and the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) hold registers of 'accredited' practitioners. You can contact the BABCP by telephone or search their website for a list of therapists in your area (www.babcp.com).

In the event you decide you do want therapy then either make a self referral by telephone/email or otherwise ask the health professional responsible for your care (eg: GP, Consultant, Occupational Health) to correspond with the Midlands CBT Centre direct.
