Welcome

Inspection copies of the book “A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy [Routlege books]” are now available to course leaders. Student affordability copies are also available. Email: newintro@tadf.co.uk.

All our training can now be accessed via our eLearning portal here: learn.tadf.uk

#TADF is for individuals or organisations who wish to reimagine relationships, knowledge, practices, and training by embedding and considering the influence of the whole person in context by design. This includes, but is not limited to, integrating essential yet often overlooked and fragmented concepts such as social context, identity, diversity, culture, neurodiversity, power dynamics, intersectionality, anti-discriminatory practices, and trauma- and harm-informed models.

When these elements are included in our understanding of both ourselves and our clients’ experiences, the foundation of therapy becomes stronger, richer, and more equitable. These concepts, along with fair practice principles, are embedded from the outset rather than treated as “add-ons.”  This practice based approach (modality inclusive) is modelled and described in the book: A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy [ Routledge books ]. 

We offer training, keynotes, and consultancy on this approach, and we actively support individuals, training providers, and institutions who are engaged in creating meaningful change.

Our training, unless otherwise stated, is NCPS Quality Checked.

The following trainings and services are now available to institutes and individuals :

• Curriculum transformation service. Initial free consultancy for training providers who wish to transition to an embedded curriculum (As mandated by SCoPEd)
• Our flagship Diploma CPD (85 hours) in Diversity, Cultural Competence, Race and Anti-discrimination Practice 
• Individual CPD Training on a range of topics within a Wholeness model of knowledge and practice, including Cultural Competence, Race-Based Trauma and Stress, Difference and Diversity, Anti-Oppressive Practice, Social Class, Disability, Neurodivergence, Gender, Organisational EDI/DEI, and more.
