Description

Want to find out more about working with couples? 

Perhaps you’ve thought about training in couple therapy?

If you’ve wondered about the above, then this event will be of interest to you. 

Our Course Director for the couple training, Leezah Hertzmann, will describe the BPF’s two year post graduate training in couple psychodynamic psychotherapy. 

This is a high quality, robust training, where suitably qualified psychotherapists can gain BPC registration as a couple psychotherapist (and there are no written requirements). The course covers both contemporary and classical psychoanalytic theory as it applies to couples, and foregrounds thinking about the diverse range of adult partnerships regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, living together or apart, with or without children, and throughout the life cycle. Central to this is addressing the conscious and unconscious impact of discrimination within relationships (e.g. homophobia, racism, ageism, class, disability etc.).  

There will be an opportunity to ask questions about the course and its contents. In addition, you will hear about as some fictional clinical case examples that demonstrate how powerful couple psychotherapy is as an intervention and unique treatment of choice for some patient populations.

 

*If you are a psychotherapist or counsellor residing in an active conflict zone, you are eligible to attend this event free of charge (regardless of whether you are a bpf member or not). Please email membership@bpf-psychotherapy to enquire about a ticket.
