Frank Farrelly’s Official Provocative Therapy Site

Welcome to the original and official PT site

This is the official and original Provocative Therapy website. You can read about Frank Farrelly’s approach and discover legitimate training opportunities and resources here. Frank was very clear about how he wanted his work to be communicated and left his archive in safekeeping to Nick Kemp, who looks after this site. If you see somebody offering certifications in PT, you can be assured that what is being offered is not a Frank Farrelly approved training. Other common misconcertions is that PT is about humour or being aggressive towards others. Frank was insistant that his work was jargon free and always conducted “as if talking to an old friend”

Provocative training in Spain

We completed a major live provocative training in Valencia to a packed house. There will also be a follow-up online weekend training for attendees, check HERE Nick Kemp continues to teach Frank Farrelly’s classic approach as well as his own Provocative Change Works model which Frank encouraged him to develop. PCW is now known across the globe in Asia, USA, Europe and many other regions.

I spent many years up close studying provocative therapy and working with Frank Farrelly, before he passed on his life’s work to me for safekeeping. I am pleased to be presenting this look at Frank’s work and legacy

Blacklist of individuals and companies here

More details about unethical and illegal representations of Frank’s work are already available with the Provocative community. Most people who have trained with Frank and/or studied his work are quite respectful, so fortunately only a few characcters make the blacklist.

Frank was one of the kindest, most ethical therapists I have ever met, and his work must be preserved as he would have wished. Many thanks to all those across the globe who have highlighted unethical and illegal behaviours.
