Why Study Counselling Skills?

Counselling is a uniquely rewarding field, which is about as far from the typical 9-to-5 grind as it gets.  For the counsellor, each day brings new opportunities to change lives for the better. Each year, millions of men and women from all backgrounds turn to counsellors for their help and support. Some of whom are looking to overcome specific obstacles, while others may be struggling with broader issues. Counsellors offer their services across a variety of specialist fields, including relationship counselling, behavioural counselling, career counselling, addiction counselling and more. To succeed as a counsellor, a naturally caring, patient and empathetic character is essential. As is a genuine passion for people and the desire to help others during times of need.

This advanced Level 7 Counselling Skills Diploma takes place over a series of 13 module, each concluding with an online assessment for submission to your assigned tutor. Key topics and knowledge areas covered include the following:
