Online Therapy Group for Student Counsellors

Mondays, 18:00–19:30 | Join us online to connect with fellow student therapists.

It’s not just a course. It’s your life.

When we were in training, it quickly became clear to us that what matters most for a student counsellor isn’t mastering techniques or achieving high marks—it’s a commitment to personal growth. We can only meet our clients as deeply as we’re willing to meet ourselves. Training to become a counsellor, and working as one, is a profound inner journey; a way of life as much as a profession.

We created this group for trainees who recognise that, and who want to make the most of their training by exploring themselves in one of the most challenging and rewarding settings: group work.

Our groups are inspired by the work of Irvin Yalom, and we aim to offer a depthful, meaningful experience grounded in honesty, connection, and presence. They are warm, welcoming spaces open to counselling students at any stage, from any background. The only real requirement is a willingness to engage and become part of something shared. We meet weekly and, over time, build trust, connection, and a sense of togetherness.

We also aim to offer an affordable and powerful way to meet your personal therapy requirements while you’re training (though it’s worth checking with your provider that they recognise group therapy). Group work is not one-to-one—but it is no less personal.

Meet The Therapists

We both have a deep love for group work and bring two unique perspectives to every session we run together. Our approach is highly relational, existential, and integrative; rooted in connection, honesty, and shared exploration. Find out more about us by clicking here or see our external profiles below.
