What is the CPD Community?

At a Glance

The CPD Community is a private group exclusive to library members — a warm, supportive space for qualified practitioners who want to connect with others who share their values around growth and good client work.

Why it exists

Counselling can be a lonely profession. Many practitioners work alone — from a consulting room, a home practice, or behind a screen — with limited contact with peers outside their fortnightly or monthly supervision.

For solo practitioners especially, a sense of belonging matters. The CPD Community is built for that.

What members talk about

Members use the community to:

• Share reflections on lectures they've watched and how they're using the learning

• Ask peers for input when working with a difficult presentation

• Discuss developments in the profession and the wider mental health landscape

• Recommend resources beyond the library

• Connect informally — sometimes a CPD library, sometimes a virtual common room

A note on Facebook

The community currently lives in a private Facebook group. We know not everyone is on Facebook — if that's you, you'll still receive all important updates by email and won't miss out on anything substantive.

Want to know more?

You can see everything that's included — and current membership options — at the Counsellor CPD Library page.
