Postgraduate training

Master's in Systemic Relational Therapy

A pioneering training in relational and systemic intervention

HESTIA's own master's programme, accredited by FEATF and FEAP, directed by Dimitra Doumpioti in collaboration with Prof. Luigi Cancrini.

A unique learning experience

HESTIA's Master's offers a unique and pioneering learning experience in relational and systemic intervention. It introduces a completely new intervention methodology, developed by Dimitra Doumpioti over a professional career that integrates the best of each approach and discipline into relational-systemic theory and practice.

It is an intensive, high-quality postgraduate programme. Students gain a rigorous theoretical and practical foundation for working with families and couples, as well as with individuals, and learn to understand and integrate the main theories in the field of mental health.

Students can also complete supervised placements at the centre itself, with the possibility of joining the HESTIA team after finishing their studies.

The programme

What makes this programme different?

Six keys that make this training rigorous, practical and transformative:

Theoretical breadth

The core is systemic relational theory, but you'll get to know the main mental health models and learn to integrate them.

Learn from great teachers

For years we have collaborated with the most respected professionals in the field, in Spain and internationally.

Theory and practice in every class

Every session combines theory and practice, the two fundamental pillars of clinical work.

Supervised placements

HESTIA is both a school and a clinical centre: you can do your placement with us, with ongoing supervision.

Personal and interpersonal work

A psychotherapist is their own working tool. That's why the training places great emphasis on self-knowledge and interpersonal skills.

Our team is made up of therapists we have trained, and we refer clients to our former students.

It confirmed for me that the systemic relational approach is the one that best represents my idea of what therapy is and what it means to be a therapist. Every class was a meaningful source of learning, on a theoretical, practical and experiential level.”
