Keele Counselling Conference 2026![]() DescriptionSaturday 25th April & Sunday 26th April 2026 (9am to 5pm) Dorothy Hodgkin Building We warmly invite you to join us to the Keele University 20th Annual Counselling & Psychotherapy Conference (Research and Practice) to be held in our beautiful campus. Our theme this year : “Fitting in or Belonging? - ‘If I get to be me, I belong if I have to be like you, it’s fitting in.’ (Brené Brown) Belonging sits at the heart of therapeutic work. Brené Brown reminds us that true belonging comes from bringing our authentic selves into connection, whereas fitting in asks us to shape‑shift to meet others’ expectations. At this year’s Conference, we explore how our practices, our research, and our professional communities can create spaces where clients, practitioners and even researchers are free to be fully themselves. When authenticity is welcomed, not managed or hidden, the work of understanding, healing and growth becomes possible.
