Counselling
Our counselling courses are designed for those who are curious about the field, but are not necessarily looking to train as counsellors. On our courses you will learn how counselling works and what makes it so effective. No prior knowledge is required, just an interest in understanding people through courses which introduce you to the theory and practice.

Discover the foundations of counselling in the UK within a welcoming, interactive environment.

You can expect to explore the essentials of counselling theory and practice in a friendly, small-group setting. Classes are interactive, discussion-led and designed to give you confidence in exploring ideas and asking questions. By the end of the course, you will be able to understand key counselling theories and approaches, recognise the role of the counsellor and core skills such as active listening, empathy and reflection. After completing this course, there will be opportunities to explore our more approach-focused courses. It may encourage you to start the formal training route, which we can help signpost you to.
