Continuous Professional Development Training

Thrive CPD offers an interesting and varied programme of CPD for counsellors and therapists, by two experienced trainers.

When we are looking for CPD, we really want the in person experience. So we make no apologies for offering only in person training ourselves. Our CPD offers value for money and an enjoyable group experience
