Prof Del Loewenthal (Chair) Dr Julia Cayne (Vice Chair) History We were formed in 1998 as the Surrey Association for Psychotherapy and Counselling from students, alumni and staff of the MSc and PhD in Counselling and Psychotherapy at the University of Surrey. These programmes in turn had commenced in 1978 at the Wolfson Medical Rehabilitation Centre in Wimbledon through South-West London College and the NHS. When in 2004 these programmes transferred to what became the University of Roehampton, and were subsequently joined by the PsychD in Psychotherapy and Counselling, the alumni association changed its name to the Southern Association of Psychotherapy and Counselling (SAFPAC). In 2015 SAFPAC was approved, through the Universities Psychotherapy and Counselling Association (UPCA), to provide a training that enables its successful students to go on the UPCA and United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) registers as existential-analytic psychotherapists. In 2019, the programmes returned to Wimbledon at Wimbledon Park Hall (Arthur's Cafe) and became a UKCP accredited training organisational member through the Constructivist and Existential College of UKCP. With regard to research and publications, these were previously carried out by the Research Centre for Therapeutic Education whilst at the Universities of Surrey and Roehampton, and are now carried out through SAFPAC's Research Unit for Therapeutic Education (RUTE).

Phone 07817 758 824 Email enquiries@safpac.co.uk The Training We aim to facilitate a place where we can develop others' and our own potency and potentiality for being in the world with others. Here we might also still be able to think about how alienated we are through valuing existential notions such as experience and meaning whilst questioning other aspects such as existentialism’s inferred narcissism and the place it has come to take up with regards to such aspects as psychoanalysis and the political. The post-existential would also include the post-phenomenological, where, for example, notions of being open to what emerges in the between (as well as of embodiment) would be given primacy.
