Psychotherapy
Halton is one of the two training centres in the
Mersey deanery that offers psychotherapy training at a dedicated psychotherapy unit. The
psychotherapy service is led by Dr Sheena Pollet, Consultant Psychotherapist. Trainees are
encouraged, when at the appropriate level of experience, to take on psychotherapy patients
under the supervision of the Psychotherapy Department.
The opportunities open to trainees include attendance
at a regular Balint-style group on Monday afternoons and for more senior trainees,
supervision of individual patients. More senior trainees must see patients for
psychotherapy. Supervision will be provided via their clinical team or by arrangement
through Dr Sheena Pollet, Psychotherapy training is a mandatory requirement of the Royal
College.
If you would like to arrange to visit the
psychotherapy unit at Thorn Road Clinic and learn something of its work including its
innovative work with infants and parents, please contact Dr Pollet or nurse therapists,
Mrs. Gloria Collins and Ms Julie Weatherill (01928 575073)
