helping you on the journey to becoming (and being!) an HICBT therapist

We've been there.

Nervous interviews. The KSA Portfolio panic. The repeated question of: “what on earth do I do with this client now!?”
And we thought: why isn’t anyone else talking about this?

two lost souls was created by two jobbing NHS Talking Therapies (formerly IAPT) therapists who wanted to make the path into, through, and beyond HICBT training feel less opaque and taxing than it needs to be.

We make podcasts about what it’s actually like to train and work as an HICBT therapist (including the bits training courses often gloss over) and we give you access to honest conversations with influential voices in CBT and psychology.

We also build practical tools to take the sting out of the KSA process and help you stay grounded in session, so you can focus on the work rather than the admin around it.
