Qualifications to apply for Certification for those completing training after December 31, 2014:
To qualify for certification in Schema Therapy a person must fulfil the following two
qualifications:
1. Academic training: Hold at least a master’s degree in psychology, clinical social work, psychiatric nursing or a counselling area that leads to licensing; or a medical degree with psychiatric residency (or residency equivalent if it is defined differently in that country).
2. License or certification for practice: In countries that certify or license the above professions, a person must be certified or licensed by either the Government body or professional organisation which grants this. If no such control exists in a country, the standard of one of the national or international Professional psychotherapy organisations must be met to fulfil this requirement.
If you belong to another group that is licensed or certified to practice psychotherapy in your country, please submit this information with your
