Audiences include nurses, doctors, psychologists, counsellors, graduate workers and many other groups, in various locations all around the UK. Our overseas programmes include regular contributions to CBT courses in Poland and Iceland, as well as occasional training in Denmark, Norway, Thailand & other countries
-Our new on-line video training modules
-Clinical supervision, face-to-face, by telephone or via live internet video link
-A private patients’ clinic
-Self-help booklets for patients, and guides for clinicians
