Overview

Through the Psychotherapy and Counselling Intensive Foundation Certificate (Online) you’ll be given the space and support to determine whether a career in psychotherapy is right for you.

This professional certificate offers an engaging and comprehensive introduction to psychotherapy, ideal for those considering training as a therapist, as well as anyone with a general interest in the field. You'll build your understanding of key theories and approaches (focusing on existential, humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives, although cognitive/behavioural methods are also considered) and deepen your interpersonal skills – learning how to work therapeutically with ‘clients’ and ‘colleagues’ from different backgrounds, with different experiences and perspectives.

Career opportunities:

For most of the students, the next step is to train in either counselling or psychotherapy. Successful completion enables you to join Regent's MProf Psychotherapy course, which takes place on campus in London, or continue your journey somewhere closer to home.
