Overview
An online programme, running over three terms, to deepen the theoretical understanding and practice of integrative psychotherapy, with a focus on relational approaches.
Module 3 focuses on developing a model of integration centred in relational psychoanalytic thought and practice. Participants will be invited to reflect on clinical material and refine their models of practice.
The course is a facilitated, self-study, online programme that includes both live and pre-recorded lectures. The group is managed by a facilitation team, who are available to answer questions and provide guidance.
