Online Specialist Training and CPD for Counsellors & Psychotherapists

We provide specialist online training for counsellors & psychotherapists - but it's still small size, interactive, informative & engaging!

This is not just boring "sit and listen"... we encourage questions and we provide thought-provoking activities.

We cover a wide range of topics from trauma and Pre-Trial Therapy to more creative areas like Working with Nesting Dolls and Therapeutic writing

Upcoming courses - Spring 2025

14th April

How to work with a Sex or Porn Addiction


Would you like to be better equipped to spot sex/love or porn addiction issues?

Would you know what to look out for or feel confident in how to help?

It's important because you might unknowingly already be working with them! Clients can find it hard to open up about these sorts of problems... we need to be informed in order to spot the clues.

12th May

Working with Nesting Dolls and other Objects


Would you like to work more creatively?

Have you ever used Nesting Dolls or objects yourself but wondered how to introduce them to your clients?

Maybe you lack the confidence to know when or how to use them with clients?

All this and more - including real life demonstrations are included on this informative & popular workshop.

Who Are Inspire CPD?

Inspire CPD is an East Midlands based specialist counsellor & psychotherapy training venture run by Lynsey Lowe & Sally French. We've delivered training together since 2018 and from June 2020 we've regularly delivered our specialist workshops online, these have received such excellent feedback that we are continuing to deliver in this format.

We are both psychotherapists, supervisors and trainers based in Nottinghamshire. We both have an extensive background as trainers and working with abuse and sexual violence – Lynsey worked for Rape Crisis Nottingham, and Sally was a sexual offences specialist prosecuting solicitor.

Why come to one of our training workshops?

We know that these days there’s an awful lot of choice of CPD events – some of which are free to access – so why do a workshop with us?

We believe what we offer is very different to other online training. We offer:

A truly interactive experience that aims to replicate ‘in the room’ training.

An experiential experience where you will learn more about yourself. We believe that both types of learning are essential to therapist CPD.

We present our workshops with warmth and humour – sharing stories of our experiences – and sometimes our mistakes – to create a real learning environment.

Opportunity to meet and network with other therapists.

You will get to learn theories and news ways of working with clients.

Our workshops are constantly updated to take account of any new relevant information and we pride ourselves on producing high quality well researched workshops and useful follow up material.

Our small group size means that you will get opportunities to ask questions, and whilst we always encourage full participation no one will ever be forced to speak if they don’t want to – it’s your decision.

General information

Timings & Accessibility
