hello Holly, thank you for your videos! Any idea of what is the role of a CP when one MDT is merging with another MDT?

[@ClinicalPsychologyCommunityUK]

Hiya - so sorry I haven't seen this sooner! I wonder what the two MDTs were doing before (i.e. why are they merging?). The role of a CP in this could be to help smooth a transition over and to help support staff teams to integrate as well as the other bits of being a CP in a MDT

Hope all is well with yourself, I just have a question. I’m currently on a undergraduate in psychology and counselling degree first year and doing my level 4 in therapeutic counselling first year of the diploma. Is it beneficial to be qualified with a BACP counselling diploma on a NHS MDT? Or will it be a narrowing of the psychological role.

[@ClinicalPsychologyCommunityUK]

Hiya - I can't imagine it narrowing anything and having an accredited qualification is usually helpful :)

How many people in a clinical therapist group? How many mins usually a section and how many times called a short section evaluation?

[@ClinicalPsychologyCommunityUK]

Hiya - thanks for watching and for your comment. I'm sorry I'm not sure how to answer your questions...
In terms of a clinical therapist group - do you mean group therapy? In which case that really depends on what the presentation is (and how many attend the session), but likely to be between 4-8 clients depending on the therapy.
Can you clarify your other questions please? I can try to answer them :)

Hi,
Do clinical therapist need to pass license exam in UK? Do they have Right to write "Therapy Treatment Diagnosis code" ?

[@hsiao-meihuang4984]

Hi, I kind of known the psychiatric physician can write "Psychiatric medications prescription". They focus on medications to treat psychological unwell beings of people. What the psychologist in UK use methodology in their unwell beings of people?

[@ClinicalPsychologyCommunityUK]

@@hsiao-meihuang4984 so sometimes medication will be advised (by psychiatrists or doctors). Psychologists tend to use talking therapy as their intervention.
