Offered at our Colchester Campus, this program provides a foundation in psychodynamic theory and its practical uses. You can take it independently if you're drawn to the psychodynamic approach, or as the initial year of our Grad Dip/MA in Psychodynamic Counselling (graduates of our FdA/BA Therapeutic Communication and Therapeutic Organisations (TCTO) program may enroll directly into the MA).

For psychology graduates, this course serves as the perfect progression into psychodynamic counseling. It also offers a pathway to counseling and psychotherapy qualifications for professionals including educators, social workers, healthcare providers, and care professionals.
Our Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies enjoys global recognition as a premier institution exploring the unconscious mind's role in mental health, culture, and society. We combine rigorous academic inquiry with insights from clinical practice.

Situated within a top-tier university for social sciences, you'll benefit from collaborative departments that enrich our work. This unique environment lets you learn from and collaborate with leading clinicians and distinguished scholars in their respective fields.
