The REH Therapy School
Learn proven techniques in Counselling, NLP, Psychotherapy and other Neuroscientific modalities — from psychodynamic roots to cutting-edge neuroscience — and learn how to apply evidence-based approaches to real mental health practice.
Perfect for: Trainee and practising counsellors, psychotherapists, psychology graduates and undergraduates, social workers, mental health support workers, coaches seeking a stronger clinical foundation, and educated general learners with a serious interest in mental health and therapy.
Therapy is both an Art and a Science. This school teaches you both.
Whether you're a student practising to become a counsellor or looking to deepen your knowledge and theoretical grounding elements, a psychology student bridging the gap between textbooks and the therapy room, or a curious mind who wants to understand why talk therapy actually works — this school was built for you. We go far beyond surface-level overviews. You'll explore the major therapeutic modalities in genuine depth: person-centred counselling, CBT, psychodynamic therapy, ACT, DBT, solution-focused therapy, and more — understanding not just what each approach does, but when, why, and for whom it works best.
The neuroscience layer that most therapy courses skip
What separates this school from a standard counselling course is the neuroscience thread woven throughout. You'll learn how trauma physically reshapes the brain, why the therapeutic relationship is neurobiologically meaningful, how polyvagal theory explains the nervous system's role in emotional regulation, and what modern brain imaging research tells us about the mechanisms behind depression, anxiety, PTSD, and personality disorders. Understanding the brain doesn't replace empathy — it makes you a sharper, more confident practitioner.
From theory to the real therapy room
Mental Health literacy is only valuable when it translates into action. Throughout the school you'll develop practical skills: reflective listening, formulation, ethical decision-making, working with resistance, managing ruptures in the therapeutic alliance, and recognising when to refer. Case studies, clinical vignettes, and reflective exercises anchor every concept in the realities of actual client work. By the end, you won't just know the theories — you'll know how to think like a therapist.
What you'll be able to do
- Explain the core theoretical frameworks of the major talk therapy modalities — including CBT, psychodynamic, person-centred, ACT, DBT, and solution-focused approaches — and identify the clinical contexts each is best suited to
- Describe how the brain processes trauma, stress, and emotional dysregulation, and connect these neurobiological mechanisms to therapeutic interventions
- Apply polyvagal theory and nervous system principles to understand client behaviour and inform moment-to-moment therapeutic decisions
- Construct a basic biopsychosocial case formulation for a presenting client, integrating psychological, neurological, and social factors
- Demonstrate core counselling micro-skills — including empathic reflection, Socratic questioning, validation, and reframing — and know when to deploy each
- Recognise the diagnostic features and neuropsychological profiles of common mental health conditions including depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, OCD, and personality disorders
- Navigate key ethical and professional challenges in therapy practice, including boundaries, confidentiality, safeguarding, and managing countertransference
- Evaluate emerging research in neuroscience and psychotherapy to critically assess new therapeutic approaches and avoid pseudoscientific claims

Robert Edmanson-Harrison
I've spent years sitting with the question that anyone serious about therapy eventually faces: why does this actually work? My background spans counselling practice, psychotherapy training, and a deep fascination with what neuroscience is beginning to reveal about the mechanisms beneath every good therapeutic conversation. I designed this school because I kept finding that training programmes forced a choice — you either learned the clinical skills or you learned the science. I wanted both, integrated and honest about what we know and what we don't. I'm not here to hand you a toolkit of techniques. I'm here to help you think — about clients, about the brain, about the profound responsibility of sitting with someone in their most vulnerable moments. I hope this school challenges and equips you in equal measure.
