Supporting you on your journey…
Qualify as a counsellor
Do you have a passion for helping others? Then counselling could be the career for you. Our courses are awarded by CPCAB (the most prestigious counselling training awarding body), approved by BACP (the UK’s leading counselling membership body) and designed with practical application in mind, as we believe counselling is something that cannot be taught through a textbook. This combination ensures you’ll qualify as an effective counsellor and be eligible to register with BACP.
Post-qualification courses
Once you have qualified as a counsellor and earned your BACP membership, you can be assured of the services you provide to your clients. However, many counsellors want to take their career further and be their own boss by opening their own practice or becoming a counselling supervisor, responsible for ensuring other counsellors uphold standards. Our level 5 and 6 courses are awarded by the prestigious counselling training body, CPCAB.
Our core principles…
Communicate
Communicate authentically and with empathy
Collaborate
Work together to achieve desired outcomes
Connect
Develop meaningful connections within yourself and with others
What our students have to say about us…
“I started this course as an experimental journey due to my keen interest in mental health. But this course has surpassed all my expectations, and I have achieved more than I could have asked for. It has opened new avenues, and I was very impressed with the academic structure and the practical skills sessions at such an early stage. It gave me an excellent understanding of the working aspects of counselling and psychotherapy. And we couldn’t have asked for a better tutor to guide us. This was the first online course I have ever worked on. But it was easy to navigate and very convenient for my current situation. Overall, it was a great experience, and on a personal note, this course was an anchor on many levels. “
“I’ve just completed my Level 3 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience (looking forward to Level 4).
The tutors are extremely knowledgeable, friendly but professional. The content of the course is brilliant, and the location is perfect!
I highly recommend studying here to anyone considering the Counselling profession or Personal development.”
