Metanoia Institute

Metanoia Institute is one of the United Kingdom’s leading providers of specialist higher education in the disciplines of psychotherapy, counselling psychology, counselling and, more recently, coaching and organisational development.

Metanoia Institute values its long-standing reputation for providing education of outstanding relevance and quality and we aspire to work in partnership with our students in a learning environment which strongly encourages the mutually beneficial exchange of ideas, observations and experience.

Metanoia Institute’s ethos is defined by an understanding that no single approach to therapy is significantly more effective than any other, and all have something to offer the practising clinician. All of the Institute’s programmes, are designed to develop a coherent philosophical, professional and ethical base as an on-going support for clinical practice and to enable students to become authoritative in the critical evaluation of philosophical paradigms and value systems in relation to therapeutic work.
