  • Writing About The Unconscious with Moya Sarner

    Sunday 10th May

    Jackson’s Lane Art Centre 269A Archway Road, Highgate, London, N6 5AA

    10am - 1:30pm


    We are delighted that Moya Sarner is going to be running a face to face workshop for us in May. Moya is a London-based psychodynamic psychotherapist working within the NHS, as well as a freelance journalist who has written for The Guardian, The Times, New Scientist and other national outlets, developing a keen eye for the ways in which social and economic structures intrude upon private life. Her book, When I Grow Up (2022), is a study of adulthood. Until December last year she was writing a popular fortnightly column for The Guardian called 'How to build a better Life' about what she was learning both from being in psychoanalysis herself and in her work as a psychotherapist.

    In the first part of the workshop, Moya will share something of the events in her own life which led her to write her Guardian columns, and how they made her a better writer and therapist. She will also talk about why she feels it is increasingly crucial that psychotherapists are able to communicate about this thing, 'The Unconscious' in an ordinary and straightforward way outside of the consulting room.

    In the second part of the workshop, Moya will facilitate a short creative writing exercise leading on from her talk. We will then discuss some of the writing that emerges, thinking about it in the context of writing for the general public. Please note that clinicians from all therapeutic modalities are very welcome at this workshop and no-one will be forced to share with the rest of the group anything they have written unless they feel comfortable to do so!

Continuing Professional Development for Counsellors and Psychotherapists

Our varied range of CPD workshops are held either in-person in North London, or online via Zoom. Currently all of our meetings are on Sundays.

Our CPD workshops are welcoming social occasions. We know counselling and psychotherapy can be a lonely profession, and most trainings are either online or in a room with strangers.

ACPNL events aim to combine professional development with the opportunity to meet colleagues in person, build connections and friendships in the pleasant surroundings of our venues.

Workshops cost £30 for members, and £40 for non-members for a half day.

All are welcome. To book your place visit our Eventbrite page.

Testimonials from our CPD workshops

  • I was moved by people's openness and willingness to share their personal experiences.

  • Was a very useful and thought provoking workshop providing information and understanding of Neurodiversity and ADHD. I valued Leo's honesty when sharing his story and personal difficulties.

  • Very interesting, inclusive and well presented.

  • Good to hear Leo’s personal journey.

  • Relevant and insightful.

  • This is a topic that is currently widely debated and society’s attitudes to it are in a state of change. Our personal attitudes to it are extremely relevant, l think, to understanding and managing our family and social relationships ( not to mention our relationships with ourselves).

  • I always find the ACPNL workshops - originating, as they do, with a focus on client/therapist relationships and the intention of enriching professional understandings, add a lot to my thinking generally. I thought that Leo’s account of his personal growth and insights over recent years, movingly and effectively made the link between personal and professional and offered a lot of food for thought.

  • I appreciated Christiane's wealth of knowledge and experience and also her down-to-earth approach. There was enough material for a couple of workshops. The material was put across in a way that I easily understood and retained.

  • The speaker was excellent. She covered so much in just 3hrs. Attending this workshop would be most beneficial for anyone working with abused clients. Thank you ACPNL for offering this excellent workshop.

  • It was amazing! Maybe it was even too short, considering the nature of the topic. Reasonable price, a fantastic deliverer, and good timing. I enjoyed having the reading beforehand.
