Psychotherapy & Counselling Training
Becoming a counsellor
Counsellors work with clients experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties to help them bring about effective change and/or enhance their wellbeing. Clients could have issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, loss and relationship difficulties that are affecting their ability to manage life. Learn how to get qualified!
OUR PUBLIC DUTY
Our profits go towards helping clients gain therapy & students through meaningful training and qualification
Members that pay subscription fees help to finance students training and help towards paying for therapy for those that can not afford it. We are working towards helping all counselling memberships to grow their private practice to ensure that those that require counselling can get it when they need it most.
