Genuine Provocative Therapy

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. This site contains substantial information about Frank’s work and how he wanted it presented to the wider public

Frank was a brilliant therapist and lover of people. This site showcases his work as he intended. I am honoured to be caring for his archive of work and maintaining quality control so his wishes are respected. Here you can find articles and videos on Frank’s work as well as the opportunity to learn Provocative Therapy as Frank intended.

It’s a shame to have to create a page like this, but it’s important to uphold Frank’s wishes and keep characters from distorting his brilliant original work. Fortunately, only a few characters are on the blacklist, but it’s important to warn the wider public about them to avoid being scammed.

If you see events and /or trainings promoted as “provocative”, check the blacklist to make sure you are experiencing Provocative Therapy as intended by its creator. Most of the problem characters appear to come from two specific countries; you can see this on the blacklist page on this site.

There are no certifications in Provocative Therapy, but there are great training opportunities here

Frank Farrelly clear states here “There are no certifications in Provocative Therapy” If somebody is selling courses and issues such stuff, then you are being scammed and should ask for a refund. Also let me know and I’ll add them to the blacklist on this site.

Frank was very clear about how he wanted his work communicated and left his archive in safekeeping with Nick Kemp, who looks after this site. With Frank’s blessing Nick has created his own Provocative Change Works model, that includes Frank’s original work but adds in many more dimensions. This PCW model is now taught across the globe in Europe, USA and Asia.
