Student testimonials

The Grove’s CPD conference 2025 was a solid session of informative and topical presentations and discussions. 

My knowledge on the areas covered – intimacy and relationships, trauma therapy and supporting clients with ADHD – was affirmed and expanded by the talks, and there was an excellent exchange of support and information among online attendees in the chat facility. I’d have no hesitation in attending any training the Grove offered.

The presenters – all Grove directors – shared their knowledge with warmth and professionalism, and did a smooth job of holding group discussion with online and in-person attendants.

I’m already on the lookout for next year’s event!

Claire 2024 trauma

I have enjoyed the course very much and consider it a privilege to have had so many knowledgeable specialist tutors, not least yourself Sarah. I look forward to being able to practice as a supervisor, using the knowledge that I have gained.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to enrol in and complete the Trauma Course. It has been incredibly valuable for my work, both as a trainee counsellor in IAPT and in my NHS practitioner role, which has even led to a promotion. I’ve taken so much from the teaching, peers, and supervision. It has really confirmed how much I want to continue developing towards becoming a trauma therapist. So thank you again for creating such a meaningful learning experience.

Emma 2025 self-study

I wanted to extend my thanks for such an enlightening and powerful study day yesterday, it has released a huge amount of shame I’ve been carrying all my life.  This alone is life changing.  As well as all the other information mapped out in the 10 domains and how to put this into context with scaffolds etc.   I will always be grateful to you all.
