Next year in Jerusalem: Psychotherapy training for tomorrow's consultants

Abstract

The Royal College of Psychiatrists' requirements for psychotherapy training and the role of the local psychotherapy tutor are summarised. Practical issues concerning the provision of this training are discussed, taking into account the anxieties that trainees experience. Suggestions are made about conducting case discussion groups, providing case supervision in small groups, locating short cases and arranging group and systemic therapy experience.
