START HERE: Finding Our Professional Home: About Between Sessions
If you're a CBT therapist, you've likely felt it - that sense of professional isolation despite being part of a vital and growing field.
While we're connected through our shared dedication to evidence-based practice, we've lacked a central space to truly come together.
Until now, we've pieced together professional connection through Facebook groups and WhatsApp chats, trying to stay current with research while juggling NHS caseloads or private practice demands. But these scattered conversations, however valuable, lack sometimes needed anonymity, and highlight a deeper need in our profession — somewhere for us, between sessions.
Why Now?
Recent events, like the BABCP's shift on international practice, demonstrate both our collective strength and our need for better connection. When CBT therapists unite, we can, and do, create meaningful change. Yet too often, we miss opportunities to support and learn from each other simply because we lack a consistent way to connect.
We also lack a one-stop-shop. Private practice help, clinical updates, the latest research, clinical resources and our community are all scattered everywhere.
Between Sessions brings this altogether in one place, written by therapists, for therapists.
A Space of Our Own
Between Sessions isn't just another professional resource - it's our professional, but informal, home.
Here, you'll find:
Research distilled into practical insights you can use tomorrow
Complex clinical challenges explored with peers who understand
Private practice wisdom shared openly
NHS developments analysed
Digital innovations explained in therapist-friendly terms
and a community, just like you.
More Than Information
But Between Sessions aims to be more than an information source. We're creating a space where:
The latest research meets real-world experience
The latest news is disseminated to everyone
Private practitioners share growth strategies
NHS therapists find practical support
CBT therapists across the glob can connect
Digital innovations meet clinical expertise
And everything in between.
Growing Together
Between Sessions represents a new chapter for our profession - one where evidence-based practice meets authentic connection, where research meets real-world application, and where every CBT therapist can find their professional tribe!
Join us in creating the professional community we've always needed but never had.
Because between sessions is where some of our most important work happens.
