Training

TAILOR MADE TO YOUR NEEDS

We have all been trained in teaching methods, and are Honorary Lecturers at the University of Southampton, where we teach Trainees undertaking their Doctorate in Clinical Psychology.  We are lucky to have a wealth of expertise and experience within our team, and so we can provide high quality training across a wide array of subjects.  

We enjoy designing and running training sessions and workshops for groups of professionals of all backgrounds on a wide range of topics.  We can provide training around all aspects development, mental health, behaviour and psychological assessment/therapy with children, young people and families.  


We aim to make our training sessions informative, useful, interactive and where appropriate, fun.

  • Working with Trauma

  • Understanding and managing challenging behaviour

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with children, adolescents and families

  • Using mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) based approaches with children and adolescents.

The training events above were designed specifically to the needs and size of the audience.  If you have a training need, get in touch with us today to find out what we can do for you.

As we design bespoke training, costs vary - but we will always be upfront about our charges.  We are keen to help people to learn and develop their skills and so we will always do our best to make training accessible.
