Threads across the divide: weaving connections in a fragmented world 

Save the Date: UKCP Conference 2026 

Friday 8 – Saturday 9 May 2026 | London and online 

Next spring, established and emerging voices in psychotherapy will come together to deliver thought-provoking talks, workshops and discussions to explore how we can foster meaningful human connection in times of increasing isolation.  

Join us for our 2026 conference Threads across the divide: weaving connections in a fragmented world. Together, we’ll delve into the paradoxes of division and unity and consider how the therapeutic relationship can help bridge the gaps that fragment us. 

Programme 

We’re hard at work putting together an inspiring line-up of speakers and a dynamic programme. Over the next few months, we’ll be sharing news and sneak peeks about the conference, from our main programme to special activities. We look forward to unveiling more of the details with you later in the year.
