There is an identified need for more psychiatrists who have been trained in cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). The Royal College of Psychiatrists' guidelines for psychotherapy training recommend that all psychiatric trainees receive CBT training. This paper describes a brief programme of CBT training for psychiatric senior house officers (SHO) which demonstrates a viable model achieving limited training objectives.
