Creative Writing for Therapeutic Purposes (CWTP) is a growing field of research and practice. This unique non-clinical MSc course allows students to learn experientially through writing and discussion, receive taught content on theory, and develop skills and aptitudes for working in CWTP. The course's core values are humanistic and person-centred, emphasising people’s potential for growth, change, and movement in a positive direction in their lives.

There is a strong emphasis on creating opportunities for participants to develop the personal qualities that becoming a facilitator of CWTP demands. The MSc draws on the range of current literature on theory and practice in both CWTP and counselling. It is open to theory and practice from other established creative and therapeutic disciplines and ethical and philosophical viewpoints and practices that support creative and therapeutic processes.

We were founded in the early 1980s and were among the first organisations in the UK to offer humanistically oriented professional training programmes. Metanoia Institute is a well-established educational charity specialising in professional training programmes for counsellors, psychotherapists, counselling psychologists, supervisors, coaches and organisational development consultants.

At Metanoia, all our approaches offer a broad basis from which to develop a personal style. We emphasise the importance of developing a sound therapeutic relationship that can support and challenge the client according to the context. Psychotherapy outcome research and the experience of practitioners in the field suggest that no single psychotherapy or counselling approach is significantly more effective than any other approach, and all have something to offer the clinician. It is the nature of the problem, the client's personality, and the setting of the therapy that call for a particular approach.
