Counselling for Depression (CfD) Gathering

We are hosting our first CfD gathering. This is open to CfD therapists, CfD supervisors and those training in CfD.

We are delighted to announce that Professor Robert Elliott is joining us. Robert was a key contributor and researcher in the development of CfD and is an originator of Emotion Focused Therapy. Robert will be joining us for the entire day. 

The aim of the day is to support and encourage qualified and in-training CfD practitioners and those who are already qualified in, or hoping to train as CfD supervisors.  

The first part of the day will take the form of a consultation with Robert Elliott, David Murphy, Emma Tickle and Kate Hayes.

 Suggested themes we can develop include:

• What are the tensions of working in IAPT?
• How to maintain a person-centred stance in a medicalised setting?
• How to collect data and engage with research?

 Robert will be offering a presentation during the second half of the day.

 We will end with a planning session for a future gathering.
