Theory and Methods of Relational & Integrative Psychotherapy

Comprehensive Training on the Theory and Methods of
 Relational & Integrative Psychotherapy 2024-2025 with Dr Ruth Birkebaek

Post-qualification Certification in Relational and Integrative Psychotherapy – 5 weekends spread throughout the year, 15 hours each weekend

This training program will provide the fundamental theory required for certification as an Integrative Psychotherapist by the Commission for Standards and Certification (CSC) of the International Integrative Psychotherapy Association (IIPA). A certification of 75-hour Continuing Professional Development will be issued on completion of each year course.

Through lectures and group discussion of theory-into-clinical practice, assigned readings and participant’s presentation of clinical cases for consultation, this training will provide psychotherapists and counsellors with an understanding of the Theory and Methods of Integrative Psychotherapy: Relational-focused and Developmentally-based as developed by Richard Erskine.

The training will focus on the importance of the therapeutic relationship while emphasising the methods of psychotherapy that integrate client’s affect, cognition, physiology and behaviour. The aim of relationally-focused and developmentally-based Integrative Psychotherapy is the intrapsychic reorganisation of the client’s beliefs about self, others and the world while acknowledging, validating and normalising the client’s relational needs.

This engaging and relational therapeutic training will meet five times a year for 2 days, 15 hours each time. Participants are required to financially commit to payment of the full five 2-day modules.
