We provide live and online workshops and courses for the NHS and other organisations in the UK, Europe and worldwide. There are places available on some of these for external applicants, as well as on open courses that we run from time to time. For details, please email anph.enquiries@gmail.com

Our trainings are based on intensive coaching in interactional skills.

Our trainings are provided by accredited trainers of CIC who are members of the Association of Narrative Practice in Healthcare. We use large and small group teaching. We pay particular attention to conversational microskills, including attentiveness to language and body language, and carefully focussed questioning.

An independent evaluation of our work by a team from Cardiff University highlighted the theoretical and practical coherence of our approach in supervision and training, and the opportunities it provides for significant changes in people’s understanding and practice.
