Developing a competence framework for cognitive analytic therapy

ConclusionsThe framework enables trainees, service users, service managers, and commissioners to better understand a) the core features of CAT and b) what competences need to be in place for CAT to be skilfully delivered in practice.Practitioner points It is possible to define the core competences of CAT. Whilst generic competences are important, there are five CAT ‐specific domains of competence. The CAT‐specific competences reflect the three‐phase structure of the therapy: reformulation, recognition, and revision.
