The Grove is really proud of all the fantastic reviews we’ve gathered from professionals who have attended our courses. The voices of our customers are very powerful. We are grateful for all the valuable feedback. You can search and read these genuine comments below.

Each one is from someone who has taken one or more courses with us. Each testimonial is featured with permission from the student. Their motivation is not only to thank us (which is lovely to hear) but also to encourage others toward a similar positive experience.

This course was more than I was hoping for. Not only did I learn so much about trauma, it also inspired me to research other related areas. It immediately impacted my client work positively, and offered me new tools to share. It was challenging, accessible and supportive. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Having finished the taught aspect of the course, I can honestly say that I haven’t experienced an input of the high quality that The Grove has delivered, either in a face-to-face or online setting. Both of the tutors are so approachable & knowledgeable and all of the guest speakers I personally found to be enthralling.
To sum up, I didn’t want to miss a second of the course as I learnt so much.

I have just finished your couples training course and wanted to let you know that I have recently seen my first couple. Your teaching and the course material has really supported me in making a good start with the work and I wanted to say thank you to you both.
Even though I have been a therapist and supervisor for many years it was good to be in a learning environment again. I know that your training has given me a solid foundation that will underpin my work with couples going forward.
Student 2023 couple/relationship course
I want to say a big thank you to you and Elliot for delivering a very informative course. I have really benefited from this course by having started the process of working with couples. I wasn’t expecting to do this until I finished the course. You have given me the confidence to work with couples. I am really enjoying working this way and enjoying a new challenge. With the support of my supervisor, I feel well equipped to work with couples.

Sinthia 2023 supervision course

I really appreciate your hard work and input in creating such an amazing course. I learnt a lot from all of you, not only professionally, but also personally. It helped me understand my own experience of trauma and move on. It was a pleasure to meet you and take part in this journey.

Ludmila 2023 trauma course

Thanks so much for all you have done to make this course so amazing, accessible and empowering. I feel super excited about my clients’ lives and future treatment which is priceless.

It’s really helpful to get guidance from experienced professionals like yourself as I navigate my way through this new path. Your ethical concerns and dedication to the learning experience speak volumes for the integrity of your organization.

Thank you again for your support with my Supervision diploma course. I love it!
As a dedicated professional in the clinical field, I have always sought opportunities to enhance my skills and knowledge. The supervision course I recently enrolled in has not only met but exceeded my expectations, thanks in large part to the exception team – leaders and trainers.
What makes this course truly stand out is the unparalleled dedication of the course leaders/trainers. Their depth of knowledge is only matched by their genuine commitment to our learning and development.
The course leaders have an uncanny ability to identify and nurture the potential in every trainee, creating an environment where learning thrives. Their feedback is always constructive, encouraging us to push our boundaries and think critically.
This level of attentiveness has made a significant impact on my professional journey, igniting a renewed passion for my career and a desire to reach even greater heights of qualification in the clinical field. For all the reasons above, I have recently decided to enrol onto another clinical course with The Grove which will start in the next few months.
In conclusion, I cannot recommend this course and its leaders highly enough. Their expertise, coupled with their nurturing approach, makes this an invaluable experience for any clinical professional looking to advance their career.
Sinthia 2023 supervision course

I have gained so much since taking the trauma training with The Grove. Not just in my client work but the opportunities it has given me. I recently applied for a Trauma Trainer position in Scotland. As a result of this diploma, I felt confident in my interview presentation on neurobiology of trauma. It’s a great opportunity for me and I am so appreciative of the course for everything it has allowed to blossom in me since.

I am very much enjoying the psychosexual course, it has exceeded my expectations for it and looking forward to each course weekend!

Nora 2023 psychosexual course

It is both safe and challenging in terms of the suggested exercises the course contains, with always the option to not take part.  I would add that for anyone asexual or transgender (and of course, anyone LGBTQI) it would be a safe, inclusive and welcoming place to train. It is amazing how much can be covered in such a short amount of time.  I would say this course is well worth the money on all levels.

Success stories are individual stories. Each attendee will bring to the course their lived experience and positionality.

So we are very pleased to see diversity in every cohort, which enriches the learning experience for everyone. Working with difference is intrinsic to the way we run our courses.

We have welcomed learners who let us know about dyslexia or ADHD or hearing loss or that they will attend the course with their guide dog.

We circulate course materials in advance of each teaching date, to enable each participant to familiarise themselves according to their own learning style.

These are some of the practical things we can do to support engagement in their course learning. Yet there is always more work to do in supporting inclusivity – and we are open to hearing from each student about their educational needs.

Our commitment to inclusivity is enshrined in The Grove’s Diversity and Respect Statement.
