​Imagine working independently or within a team dedicated to helping people feel better through psychotherapy. Belonging to a profession based on ethics, integrity and respect provides a sense of direction that can lead you towards a lifetime of self-development as you help other people along the way. Becoming a psychotherapist is not without its challenges. You’ll undoubtedly encounter some hurdles and be stretched in ways you may never have imagined. The training itself is designed to grow people so they can help others grow.

​​

Psychotherapy training is part time and spread over four years. Each year is comprised of 10 monthly training events that take place on a Saturday and Sunday at a local venue, where you’ll meet like minded people working towards becoming fully qualified psychotherapists. The weekends are designed to introduce you to the theory and models used in psychotherapy and familiarise you with using them.

​

Once you have successfully completed your training hours you can then prepare for certification, which requires you to write a dissertation and attend an oral exam. You will have access to individual support as you work towards your final exam. Upon completion of your exams you will be a Certified Transactional Analyst Psychotherapist and be eligible for UKCP registration.

​

We won’t let you go without celebrating so we hold an event for successful CTA candidates, where you can come and share your experience with other trainees and show off your certificate with pride. To register your interest in training with Maidstone Therapy, send us an email. louise.witney@me.com

Warmly, Louise.
