The recent substantive report Guidelines for the Training of General Psychiatrists in Psychotherapy makes explicit the expectations of the College in regard to psychotherapy training for trainees in general psychiatry. The report points out the particular difficulties in providing such psychotherapy training outside the teaching centres. This paper is a description of the organisation of psychotherapy training in the periphery of the Northern Region and of what may be achieved with limited resource.
