Upcoming workshops
Being & Becoming - conversations in person-centred therapy
Join us for a relaxed evening of connection, sharing, and learning from each other.
This isn’t your typical CPD event - think of it as a chance to wind down at the end of the week, be part of meaningful conversations, and connect with like minded people in the community.
At each event we’ll hear from three members of the community, sharing their experience as a person-centred therapist on topics that matter to them. This is the first in a series of events where anyone is welcome to put themselves forward to speak, building shared learning and connection.
For this first event, we’ll hear from:
- Alice Wilson – explores the power of community and why having a person-centred community was so important to her after finishing training.
- Jenn Payne Gregory – on her experience working as a person centred therapist in the NHS.
- Helen Skelton - refutes the idea that the PCA is ’nice’ counselling, and explores how the approach is inherently and deeply challenging for both counsellors and clients.
Each talk will last around 20 minutes, followed by time for questions and an open discussion.
Venue: Haulm, Rochester Gardens, Brighton and Hove, Hove BN3 3AW
Friday 25th April 6pm - 9pm

This is the next in the series of all day face to face experiential CPDs offered by the Brighton Person-Centred community. We are pleased to welcome Rachel Freeth to Brighton to explore this topic, drawing on her experience as a person-centred counsellor and working as a psychiatrist in the NHS for 25 years. Like our other events, this will be an opportunity to connect, share, explore and learn in an environment where we can be.
When something or someone is being medicalised what does this mean to you?
We live in a culture where the so-called ‘medical model’ has a powerful influence on narratives around health/illness and helping activities of many kinds, including in the arena of emotional and psychological functioning (or mental health). It is now also increasingly present within the counselling and psychotherapy world. As person-centred practitioners this can be challenging.
