EXTERNAL CPD

RESEARCH PARTICIPANT REQUESTS

Religion and Spirituality Research Survey Invite 


Research title: Religion and spirituality in therapy: exploring how trainee and newly qualified counsellors and psychotherapists, who identify as religious or spiritual, experience undertaking therapeutic training in the UK. 


My name is Dr. Jane Hunt and I am an experienced therapist, trainer and academic and am currently the Academic Director in Faculty One at Metanoia Institute. I am conducting research into how trainee and newly qualified counsellors and psychotherapists, who identify as religious or spiritual, experience undertaking therapeutic training in the UK. 


To take part in this survey you would need to identify as someone who is religious, spiritual, or a person of faith. You do not need to be a member of a particular religious or faith group. However, you do need to be a current trainee or recent professional counsellor or psychotherapy graduate with no more than five years post qualifying experience. You also need to be on or have graduated from a training course accredited or endorsed by one of the following professional bodies: BACP, UKCP, or BPC and have undertaken a training programme that is at least one year full-time in length or two years part-time which included a minimum of a 100 hours of counselling or psychotherapy with clients.


The survey will ask you to answer questions in four main areas: your experience of talking about religion/spirituality during your training; any conflicts you experience between your religion/spirituality and therapeutic theory and practice; the extent of training you have received around religion and spirituality on your training programme; and how equipped you feel to work with clients presenting with religious/spiritual concerns. 


If you are interested and eligible to take part in this study, please do click on the below survey link. The link will take you to further information about the study before you consent to take part.

Ethical approval for this study has been granted by Metanoia Institutes Ethics Committee. 

If you require any further information about this study prior to taking part, please feel free to contact me via email: jane.hunt@metanoia.ac.uk
