We offer opportunities to gain clinical experience within a supportive team environment for our volunteer honorary therapists and for supervisors in training, as well as for experienced psychotherapists and supervisors who are interested in applying a psychodynamic approach to work with LGBT+ clients. We also offer opportunities for experience as a Trustee, which we are currently recruiting for.
Clinical placements at Albany
We provide a safe and supportive setting for trainee therapists and qualified counsellors who are working towards accreditation. We ask for a minimum commitment of two years. This is so that people can gain experience of longer-term cases. We provide clinical supervision. We are interested in candidates who wish to develop their work with LGBT clients and also their psychodynamic /analytic skills. If you are interested please return our Placement Application form here.
