ERT Trainings

Relational Body Psychotherapy, Wild Therapy, Group Facilitation and more…

Our core training – the Embodied-Relational Therapy Training, has been running successfully for many years. We have recently (January 2024) successfully completed the 15th Advanced Year of the 2 year modular ERT training.

The next ERT training intake will be in June 2025
The training facilitators will include Allison Priestman and Stephen Tame – the current ERT training team. At this stage it is too early to say if the team will be expanded for the 2025 training.

To give you a sense of the ERT training, please do look at the information for our most recent intake: https://erthworks.co.uk/events/embodied-relational-therapy-training-course-2021/

We will send updates on progress via our mailing list – see the bottom of the page for the signup link.

Embodied-Relational Therapy Training Course 2025
Eden Rise, Totnes Devon
Facilitated by Allison Priestman & Stephen Tame

ERT focuses on the trainee’s own work on their embodied relating with self and other, now and in the past, before encouraging them to apply this with their clients. The theme of relationality runs through the whole course; listening to our own feelings and responses as a key part of how we work both in the training and with clients, witnessing how we are moved around and impacted by our clients, yet remaining able to witness and reflect on our working relationship.This is a robust and established training, which has appealed to practitioners from many different therapeutic backgrounds. It is primarily experiential; theory arises out of practice.
