Courses

The Lila Institute runs a variety of courses, including one-day CPD workshops for professionals, play therapy introductory courses, a one year foundation in play & the creative arts therapies, and we are in the process of seeking university validation for an MA programme in play therapy.

We have a skilled and experienced team of associates, all specialists in their field and we are able to cover a large range of development and training in the creative arts therapies. Drawing on these skills and resources we also offer tailor made trainings for professionals working in the helping and therapeutic field with children, young people or adults.

Part of Lila’s philosophy is to ensure that those working in a therapeutic setting have enough emotional competence and resilience as well as skills. Therefore, our training approach includes time and focus for self reflection and personal development.
