Supporting the training and development of future therapists is an important part of the work we do. We have a long and successful track record of supporting therapy students on placement. Here is what some of them have said:

 
The variety of clients I was able to see as a trainee counsellor was a real asset and also that I was wable to work with some of them for up to 20 sessions meaning we could get into the work a bit deeper. BFP has a large client base with complex trauma and this has greatly benefited my practice going forward.
— Nadine (Counselling student)
The experience of working within a setting like BFP was useful as I had only been school based before so it helped gain greater experience and develop my confidence
— Donna (Diploma in Play Therapy)
I felt very welcome and supported. I liked being able to attend the group meetings to hear what else was going on
— Jon (Counselling student)
 

If you are an adults counsellor or creative therapist (including play, art, music and dance/movement) seeking a placement who is currently studying on an accredited course please contact info@bournefamilyproject.org for a student placement pack. We may even be able to arrange for you to visit a current student to see what a placement with us is like.
