Trainee Therapists

We have a range of trainee therapists, and we have regular movement in this cohort. We range from age, gender and ethnicity. Some of our students are with us for as much as 12 months, others as little as 12 weeks. We have various psychology, counselling, and psychotherapy students in placement. All have appropriate insurance and have received significant training from their host school. At induction we ensure that the placement students understand intake and triage of new clients. We ensure that we understand safety and risk amongst the population. Regular pathways for outsourcing clients who are assessed as outside of the student’s ethical capacity are discussed. Some of our placement students see couples as well as individuals.

It is best to ask at the time of intake if your preferences for age, gender or ethnicity for instance. Because the cohort is fluid, we can often offer therapy in languages other than English. Check with our friendly staff to assess whether we are a suitable service for you. We have started this service to both add a service to the community that is lacking, to provide low-cost quality psychotherapy and to improve the professional skills of graduates in the helping professions. We look forward to assisting you.
