Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) for Complex Care
This training is a two-day advanced training that supports qualified DIT practitioners to apply the model to a complex patient group in secondary care.
About this training
Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy for Complex Care (DITCC) is a 26 session adaptation of the original 16 session DIT model. It is aimed at treatment resistant complex cases of depression. In this workshop, participants will be introduced to the specific features of this new adaptation.
The workshop provides a basic introduction sufficient to enable participants to begin practicing DITCC with supervision. The course includes presentation of theories and techniques, observation of live role-plays, discussion and formulation of cases.

The training held at Anna Freud is the first stage to becoming a DITCC Practitioner. The next stage involves having thirteen hours of supervision with one DITCC training case. This is typically structured as half an hour supervision per patient over 26 sessions. In addition, two additional tape recordings will need to be submitted for rating. This will be completed with one of the DITCC model originators.
Trainees are required to start supervision within 1 year of finishing the training and successfully complete their cases within 2 years of the training.
