“Containment in the Cloud”

Exploring care, risk, connection and the craft of online relationality, our 2026 Virtual Conference invites us to rethink distress, containment and community in virtual therapeutic spaces: What heals, what hurts, and why it matters. What are the ethics, the access issues and the relational labour of being together in rooms we cannot touch? And, in the end, can our screens truly serve as a sanctuary?


Whether you work online, teach in digital environments, offer therapy or community practice through screens, attend therapeutic environments and support spaces online, or are simply curious about how these shifts shape our shared future, we invite you to join the conversation on 29 and 30 April 2026 and contribute to the programme.
