Psychotherapy Training
Accredited by the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) and the Association of Child Psychotherapists (ACP), the bpf provides training in psychotherapy for every level of learner. The bpf is based in London (Kilburn) and Newcastle upon Tyne; however, some of our courses can be studied online or in a hybrid format.
Skills for every journey
From the complete beginner, to the highly experienced psychotherapist, our courses support individuals at every stage of their learning journey.
Our team of teaching staff is made up of professional psychotherapists from Jungian, psychoanalytic and child and adolescent psychotherapy disciplines.
This course exceeded all my expectations, and sufficiently impressed and enthused me to consider a future career in psychotherapy. On a personal level it has changed me; something that has been accelerated by beginning my own personal analysis. I find myself thinking about non-verbal communications much more as a consequence of having attended the course.
