Cognitive Behavioural Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP)
Developed by James P. McCulloch Jr in the USA, CBASP is a relatively new psychological therapy which has been developed specifically for the treatment of chronic depression. The Dundee team is the only group in the UK with experience in this therapy. We are currently planning a small study to evaluate CBASP in UK populations.
More information on this form of therapy can be found at the CBASP website.
