During lockdown I got involved in teaching mental health therapy skills, on Zoom, to a friend who wanted to transition from a physical therapist into an on-line talking therapist.

The provision of Psychological Services outside the NHS is subject too little to no formal regulation.

There is no enforceable legal regulation for a Talking Therapist to have either a Certificate or Insurance. Based on a lifetime of practice as a GP and a GP specialising in knowledge of a variety of psychological approaches, and as an author of a book on the subject, I devised a method where interested parties could train themselves for free and set up in on line practice as Therapists using resources available for free on the internet. To this end I developed material for five lectures which I recorded with a camcorder at home.
