What is interpersonal training?

Interpersonal training is a classic, intensive form of group work in which the learning material is whatever happens between the participants “here and now”. No role-plays or simulations – the group becomes a miniature of your world of relationships: the way you make contact, react to conflict, seek attention or withdraw emerges naturally and can, for the first time, be truly seen.

The strength of the training lies in feedback: kind, honest and immediate. Participants learn things nobody tells them in everyday life – how they come across, what in their way of being draws people in and what pushes them away, which of their behaviours are habits they cannot see. It is knowledge that changes relationships at work, with a partner and in friendships.

The training is led by an experienced group trainer who looks after the safety of the process. It is an intensive format – intended for people in a stable mental state who want to grow. The initial conversation helps assess whether this is the right moment.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most important questions

How does interpersonal training differ from group therapy?▼

The training is an intensive developmental experience focused on the “here and now” and on feedback, usually completed within a few days. Group therapy is a longer healing process that also works with participants’ history and deeper difficulties. The training is for stable people who want to grow; therapy is for people who want to treat specific difficulties.

I’ve heard the training can be confrontational. Is it safe?▼

Well-run training is emotionally intense but safe: the facilitator upholds the rules (voluntary participation, confidentiality, feedback on behaviour rather than on the person) and makes sure confrontation goes hand in hand with support. That is exactly why the screening conversation is mandatory – this format is for people at a stable point in their lives.

Is interpersonal training recognised by psychotherapy schools?▼

Our training is run to the standard required by most psychotherapy schools and postgraduate psychology programmes (a set number of hours, an experienced facilitator, a certificate). If you need the training for a specific school, write to us – we will confirm that it meets their requirements.
