Become Our Trainee

Psychotherapy is a profession that cannot be learned through theory alone.

It develops through practice — through contact with people, professional reflection and supervision, gradually developing the ability to be present, notice, think and take responsibility for one’s professional work.

If you are looking for a placement solely to complete the required practice hours, CONTACTA may not be the right place for you.
If you want to grow, gain real experience and develop your professional identity, we offer an environment where you can do so with professional support and regular supervision.

CONTACTA is a place where theory meets practice and where future professionals can gradually discover their own way of working with people — professionally, ethically and responsibly.

What to Expect

Real client practice with the support of experienced professionals
Regular supervision and opportunities to analyse more complex situations
Development of professional thinking and your own working style
Experience working with uncertainty, emotions and a variety of client situations
Development of professional responsibility, self-reflection and resilience

Why Choose Us

CONTACTA is more than a place to complete your practice. It is an environment where you can shape your professional path.

1. Flexible Practice Environment

The placement can be combined with studies, work and other professional commitments, allowing you to choose a level of involvement that suits you.

2. Diverse Clients and Experience

Working with a variety of client concerns allows you to encounter diverse life situations and gradually broaden your professional experience.

3. Developing Your Own Professional Path

At CONTACTA, there is no single “right” model of a professional — practice gives you the opportunity to discover your strengths and interests and develop your own professional identity.

4. A Baltic-Wide Professional Environment

CONTACTA is developing across the Baltic States, creating an environment for collaboration between professionals, educational institutions and professional communities in different countries.
