Saturday 23 May 2026 | Online
UKCP’s 2026 annual research event explores the theme “The evolving psychotherapy profession: practice, ethos and community.” This one-day online event will showcase emerging research and provide a space to reflect on how practice, professional ethos and community intersect in contemporary psychotherapy.

Connect with fellow psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors interested in these topics
The event will cover questions such as:
-
How do different modalities interact, and what are the implications for the professional community?
-
What role do training and supervision play in shaping practice?
-
How can key themes like the medical model debate or anti-oppressive practice inform our work?
