Welcome to AGIP

AGIP was founded in 1974 and is a membership organisation providing a pluralistic and contemporary training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. The clinical training equips members to work in private practice and in the public and voluntary sectors.

Our training courses include an introductory foundation year, a full clinical psychotherapy training, and an infant observation course.

Individuals seeking personal therapy can contact our Professional Members directly from our directory of psychotherapists.  We are also a registered charity offering low fee and concessionary psychotherapy for adults on low incomes.  

AGIP has members working in London, the rest of the UK, and in Europe. Our professional qualifications are accredited by the UKCP. Wherever you are on your career path, our training and memberships will help you progress your career and fulfil your potential in psychotherapy.

Train With Us

AGIP launched its new training in October 2015.

Our training courses are competitively priced and a bursary scheme is available to students, including a dedicated bursary for students from Black and minority ethnic groups. The training courses are designed to thoroughly prepare individuals for the reality of being a practising therapist in private practice and the statutory and voluntary sectors.

The training is rigorous, challenging, and rewarding.  It can also be an emotionally difficult process, and we pride ourselves upon the extensive support we offer our trainees.

Bursary Scheme

Supporting trainees enrolled on our foundation and clinical courses

AGIP offers a limited number of bursary awards for students of minority ethnic backgrounds, or students in need of financial support due to their personal economic circumstances (e.g. being a single parent, low-income household, carer or similar).

Our bursary scheme has been established in accord with our ethos of inclusivity and our commitment to offering opportunities for training to all members of the community.
