The West Midlands Institute of Psychotherapy (WMIP) is a membership organisation for a group of professionally trained psychotherapists offering psychotherapy to the community of the West Midlands and beyond. We register and maintain the accreditations of therapists offering therapy to people with a broad range of mental health and emotional difficulties.
We support continuing professional development through a variety of CPD events and networking groups: including an analytic film group, special interest groups, reading groups, seminar group, bespoke training packages and community outreach.
The institute offer:
- a training for Jungian Analytical Psychotherapists with the Analytic Psychotherapy Training (APT)
- a collaboration with the Birmingham Trust of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy (BTPP) to offer a modified training for Child and Adolescent Psychotherapists to train as Adult Psychotherapists
- an Infant Observation course
- a directory of registered therapists and supervisors
- a trainees referral service
We register Psychoanalytic and Jungian Analytic psychotherapists in our professional categories and a number of related mental health practitioners in our Associate and Affiliate categories.
