About the Diploma
September 2025-December 2027
Our next Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling will start in September 2025. The course is accredited by British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
This training aims to:
- provide students with an in-depth understanding of the psychodynamic approach to counselling informed by both classical and contemporary theory and current research.
- develop the range of skills required to practise as a psychodynamic practitioner
- help students develop a sufficient degree of self-awareness and maturity to enable them to practise safely and ethically as a counsellor.
This training is supported by supervised clinical work, which is undertaken at Highgate Counselling Centre’s clinic.
The course is open to those who have previously completed a Certificate in Counselling Skills, or similar. The course is part-time and runs from September 2025 until December 2027 (two years and one term).
The training is held on two weekday evenings (days tbc) from 7pm to 10pm, plus some Saturday workshops.
Key Dates:
Open Day: Saturday 15 February 2025 at North Bank, Pages Lane.
