Testimonials

My experience of completing the counselling diploma with this team was exceptional. I felt supported and encouraged to learn and achieve the best possible results. Their beliefs in the subject and its ability to help others carried through everything we were taught. The learning was detailed, covering all aspects of counselling, I never doubted their skills and knowledge, which they were clearly keen to share. I left the course feeling I had all the tools at my disposal to offer my professional services as a counsellor.  
Going into year 1 of the diploma I had low self-worth and self-esteem and didn't realise how little I knew about myself. I had no academic experience and had to learn about myself and how to write academic essays on top of how to become a counsellor. The trainers had their work cut out for them, they saw something in me and took a chance on me. Their patience, encouragement and genuine care helped shape me into the person and counsellor I am now. We were always told to put the theories through ourselves to understand them, and it opened up my world of self-awareness. I also finished year 2 by getting A`s and an overall score of B2 - something I never thought was possible but it was with their support.
Honestly you made a huge impact on my learning and therapy path. Keep me updated with your training programmes
