The Low cost Psychotherapy Clinic at MIP
In this video Karen Burke and Stephanie Cooke are both discussing the history and creation of the low-cost clinic at the Manchester Institute for psychotherapy.The low-cost clinic is unique in its creation as improvised a placement for the third year trainees in the transactional analysis psychotherapy training. The clinic was the brainchild of Bob Cooke who is the clinical director and founder of the Manchester Institute for psychotherapy- 1987.
Karen Burke is Gestalt psychotherapist at the Institute and put together the low-cost brochure which outlines the framework which the clinic operates from- indeed this brochure is vital to the understanding and regulations of the running of the low-cost clinic at MIP. Karen has recently conducted research with regards to the low-cost clinic and its challenges and growth.
Through the “Keyhole”of the Manchester Institute of Psychotherapy
In this video we will be exploring the different rooms within the Institute, – we will talk about the history of the Manchester Institute- look at the training rooms and some of the therapy rooms within the Institute.
The video also shows, Chorlton, the area in which the Institute is situated in- we look at the locality and the surrounding areas. The Institute was created in 1988 ,though before that it had been the Labour Party headquarters and before that the church!
We have been a Psychotherapy centre since 1988,which evolved into the Manchester Institute in 1993,and we have been running training courses and vibrant CPD programme since that date.
We also have a large clinical dimensional to the Institute- 21 Psychotherapists work from the Institute, and this has been a vital cornerstone in the development of a Psychotherapy Institute of excellence.
