The Refugee Therapy Centre

Registered Charity: 1085922 Company Number: 3895072

The Refugee Therapy Centre provides funding for members of the refugee and asylum seeker communities in the UK to undertake training to become psychoanalytic psychotherapists and psychodynamic therapeutic counsellors.

Many refugees and asylum seekers who come to this country have witnessed and experienced human rights abuses, including violence, humiliation, persecution, torture and imprisonment, as well as loss and displacement.

In response to the growing need for specialist therapeutic services for refugees and asylum seekers that respect and work with individuals’ linguistic and cultural needs, the Centre seeks to support members of these communities to contribute to the future of psychotherapy and psychotherapeutic counselling, and to serve the communities which they represent.
