Tavistock Relationships graduate students celebrate at the Sky Garden

Published in Press Releases by Tavistock Relationships on June 12th 2023

On Wednesday 7 June 2023, dozens of graduates of Tavistock Relationships’ couples therapy training programmes, celebrated their success at an event hosted by the charity at the Sky Garden in the City of London.

Tavistock Relationships has been working to support couples and families for over 75 years and is the UK’s leading organisation delivering specialist clinical trainings with a relationship focus.

Training courses in couples therapy and sex therapy range from introductory up to clinical qualification level. Clinical qualification and Diploma level courses are accredited by the relevant bodies, such as the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the British Psychoanalytic Council and the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT).

Andrew Balfour, CEO of Tavistock Relationships, explains: “It was fantastic to be able to celebrate the achievements of our wonderful graduates from the last three years. To train and qualify with Tavistock Relationships is an achievement that marks our graduates out as experts among their peers and clients, and we are proud to celebrate their success.

“The demand for couples therapy continues to increase as more and more people seek relationship support, either to repair their relationship, or to separate with less conflict to avoid damaging their children.

“Our trainings equip therapists to work with individuals and couples to help them understand themselves, improve their relationships and create better lives for themselves and their families. Each year our graduates go on to work both for us, in their own practices or other agencies and organisations.

“Professional training takes up to four years, depending on your qualifications on entry and is part-time so it can be done alongside family and work commitments. Qualified therapists with sufficient experience can complete their training in two years.”
