We have had the privilege of teaching the L6 Relational Play and Creative Therapy, Young People’s course to a wonderful group of professionals. Every day brought new learning, insight and deep appreciation for everyone’s knowledge and ability to explore the topics fully. These seven days of training were truly inspirational!
We are looking forward to the termly tutorials, elevating learning and practice further.
We received amazing feedback which has really inspired us, here is a snapshot of some of the comments we received:
“The layout and layering within the course structure gently introduced new ideas, concepts and skills before then utilising experiential activities to develop my confidence in application. “
“Neurodiversity is something I feel could be a blind spot for me, I feel the course has given me a stronger basis to go away and think about my own practice in supervision and do a bit more research.”
“The breadth of experience from all three tutors are a testament to what you have created with the school of p.a.c.t. The values that align with school of p.a.c.t were seamlessly integrated into the quality of teaching. Content of PowerPoints, accessed to resources, was easily ready and accessible. “
“Fabulous course which is led in such a safe and heartfelt way. Thank you.”

Once Upon a Trilogy ®
Three-day course:
Day one: Once Upon an Archetype
Day two: Once Upon a Metaphor
Day three: Once Upon an Anti-Hero
Within this three-day course we explore Archetypal Energy, Metaphor and Anti Heroes and the way they can present within our clients play. Have you ever wondered about the repetitive play of your clients? The same characters being used? The same themes coming up week after week? What processes are happening? How can you become involved? When should you join in or be a silent witness?
This course will enable you to gain a deeper understanding of how Archetypes, metaphor and Anti-heroes become powerful concepts within your client work. When you are the observer of your client play, watching a play narrative unfold this course will help you to consider these concepts to gain a deeper understanding of your client’s process and the transference which arises.

Time: 9.00 – 4.30
