Therapists Film Discussion and Screen Writing Group

Therapists (screen) writing group

This group is to have fun, light-hearted discussions of movies, TV shows and novels and also for colleagues who are actively writing to develop their skills.

In-person meeting in central London (Library Rooms near Bond Street) and hybrid/online versions. This group is not a formal screenwriting training.

But we take our inspiration from Psychoanalysis Goes To The Movies (https://www.facebook.com/groups/1544839415632398) and our recognition that many of us love to analyse TV shows and movies and also have our own ideas of what could be created.

Many colleagues also write blogs, guest columns, or novels. This group invites colleagues to join a supportive and fun atmosphere to discuss plot-lines, share the enjoyment (and pain) of existing shows/literature, and support colleagues who are actively writing something to develop their skills.

If you are a therapist involved in (creative) writing, whether with the intent of publishing or just for fun, and would be interested in contributing to leading this group, please be in touch.

The Cake for the event is from the Luminary Bakery (www.luminarybakery.com) which is a social enterprise helping women who have experienced domestic violence and trauma return to the work market. It is a business with a therapeutic mission, led with extraordinary care, which serves as a good example of what a ‘Psychologically Informed Environment’ (PIE) can achieve if the philosophy is taken out of the consulting room.

CPD: 1.5 hours with certificate. Online | In-person | Hybrid

These groups are for therapists only. Therapeutic qualification and registration with a UK accrediting body (UKCP, BACP, HCPC, BABCP, analytic institutes etc) will need to be verified upon booking.
