Course Description

This course extends and develops the practice of counselling skills. It enhances the knowledge which supports a therapeutic relationship by introducing conceptual frameworks for understanding the process of therapy. It applies these theories to personal and professional development. The personal and professional development aspects of the course will centre on the development of the essential skills and core personal qualities which form the basis of a safe therapeutic relationship. Within the supportive environment of ongoing personal development groups, supervision groups and the course community group students will continue to have the opportunity for the continuing development of personal and professional awareness. Feedback from peers and tutors will encourage the development of realistic self assessment within the counselling relationship.
