Psychotherapy Training Near Edinburgh
Train with the British Psychotherapy Foundation
The bpf is renowned for providing rigorous and intensive psychotherapy training, taught to the standards of the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) and the Association of Child Psychotherapists (ACP).
We offer part-time courses in Newcastle upon Tyne, a 1.5 hour train ride from Edinburgh.
With over 750 bpf members, those who study with us have the unique opportunity to join a lively community of professional psychotherapists and trainees from across the UK. Students also gain access to a busy schedule of networking and CPD events, as well as opportunities to get involved in the latest research.
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.
