Online Counselling CPD Workshop

On June 28th, we hosted our second Silencing the Inner Critic Online Counselling CPD Workshop, a six-hour online training space for counsellors, supervisors, and coaches hosted by Counselling First and Grid Society. (Learn about our collaboration.)

What made this session special was not just the material, but the atmosphere created by the professionals in the room. The reflections, questions, and insights shared made the day both inspirational and intimate. It was a privilege to workshop with practitioners who hold such depth, care and generosity.

CPCAB attended our workshop

We were also joined by a senior representative from CPCAB, the UK’s leading counselling and psychotherapy awarding body. As the organisation that officially endorses our CPD training, they attended to observe the workshop in practice.

From the beginning, he introduced himself to the group and became one of the most engaged participants in the room. He contributed thoughtfully, took part in every activity, and brought a presence that added genuine value to the space. His willingness to immerse himself fully in the experience did not go unnoticed and it meant a great deal.

After the session, the CPCAB representative sent us the following words:

“Thank you once again for the training you kindly provided, it was a privilege to be a part of the day with you all, I found it extremely useful and enjoyed the experience. I will continue to use the strategies and tools you taught as I found these to be a valuable way of maintaining one's self-care and resilience.”

To everyone who attended, thank you. When people take the time to send messages like this one, it means everything. It gives us the fuel to keep going.
