This course is for health professionals, social care professionals and workers in the voluntary sector.

There are two approaches to the course. The practitioner element is for psychotherapists. It includes specific training for supervised clinical work, helping couples and individuals with sexual and relationship difficulties. You work in co-therapy with experienced and nationally accredited therapists, or on your own. The theory only course is learning only. It does not involve direct client work and has a separate certification.
