Certificate in Integrative Psychotherapy (IP)
This course emphasises the importance of considering a broad spectrum of human and individual factors that can shape mental health and well-being within any holistic therapeutic approach.
It explores the social, cultural, and personal components—such as culture, race, gender, and other significant aspects of identity and experience—that influence a client’s unique perspective.
