Humanistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Training Course London, UK

Most of us are familiar with professional bodies like BACP or NCPS, organisations that focus on ethics, accreditation and professional standards. But fewer therapists and trainees know about the Psychotherapy and Counselling Union (PCU) a practitioner-led union that represents and supports counsellors and psychotherapists in a different way.

When the founders of Homa began dreaming up this project, we wanted a name that carried meaning, something alive, symbolic and resonant across cultures.

On Sunday 13th July 2025, HOMA Year 2 trainees presented an exhibition at the HOMA headquarters on Lloyd Baker Street which was a culmination of our term’s work on Race, Power and Privilege.

It is with deep gratitude that we honour the life and legacy of Jenner Roth, co-founder of Spectrum, Centre for Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy

Some reflections on the recent Supreme Court judgment. Last Wednesday, the Supreme Court handed down judgment in the case of For Women Scotland Ltd v The Scottish Ministers.
