OTI Graduate wins BACP New Researcher Award!

April 2, 2015 by Kate Anthony

I’m very pleased to share the great news that our graduate Jeanette Hennigan is the deserving winneJHr of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy’s (BACP) New Researcher Award for her pioneering study “’UK secondary school therapists communication with with their pupils and their future intentions”.

You may have read about Jeanette’s work in the Autumn edition of TILT Magazine, where she shared more about the study with our Associate Editor for Research, Dr Stephen Goss as part of our regular Research Review column.  Her final study will form the backbone of her being awarded her Doctorate in Psychotherapy by Professional Studies with the Metanoia Institute.

Jeanette invested in her continuing professional development in online work by successfully completing our BACP endorsed Certified Cyber Facilitator training. We take great pride in every one of our students at OTI, and so it is with immense pleasure that we see a graduate getting the recognition deserved in wider accolade of such a ground breaking study!

Jeanette’s award presentation will take place at the BACP Research Conference in May in Nottingham at 10am on the Saturday, and you can also take advantage of Dr Stephen Goss being there to find out more about the Metanoia DPsych programme.  Look out for his poster “Developing Counselling as a Practitioner-Researcher: The Experience of Undertaking the “Research Journey” for Mid-Career Practitioners in Counselling and Psychotherapy” and chat with him about how you can take your budding doctoral ideas forward.  He will also be talking about his new book “Making Research Matter”, which features a chapter from me about my own journey on my doctoral award with Metanoia Institute!

Congratulations again Jeanette – we all raise a glass to you!

Online Learning – throw in your own buffet and it’s just like being there!

March 30, 2015 by Kate Anthony

I recently co-wrote an article with John Wilson of OnlinEvents in TILT Magazine (see page 13) about the subtleties of attending online conferences and how, if you ignore the lack of a decent buffet, the learning experience can be just as rich and fulfilling as being actually at the conference centre.  A big part of this is the delegate chat room being fully functional to allow like-minded people to connect, network, have fun, and discuss the learning points as they are taught. I’ve been to countless online webinars and other events, and rarely come away disappointed. I’ve even remotely been at a stable in Chesterfield to learn and discuss Equine Therapy!Cover TinyTake

Our students attend many online events as part of their learning, and so I am really pleased to blog about the upcoming interview with Jane Fahy, who is not only a graduate of our Certified Cyber Facilitator Course but who is also now an OTI Tutor, having written our course about using blended technologies (i.e online and offline sources) to help those with a gambling addiction.

Having got bored with world of finance seven years ago, Jane retrained as a counsellor and has been specialising in working with problem gamblers ever since as Clinical Services Manager for GamblingTherapy.org, heading up the online support services. As her initial work with the organisation was as a face-to-face counsellor in their residential services, she has seen both sides of the treatment coin!

I put Jane in touch with John at OnlinEvents and now I can share details of the upcoming FREE webinar on the 17th April at 7.30pm UK time. So if you have an interest in learning more about online support and counselling – and how that works on the global stage – make sure you sign up for the event here!

And why not treat yourself and put on a complete buffet selection? That way you’ll have the full conference experience!
