Overview

* Diploma of Counselling and Psychology - CPD Certified*

Learn how to unlock minds, heal hearts, and empower change with our transformative counselling and psychology course.

Counselling is a form of mental health treatment that involves working with a counsellor to help people with emotional problems. Generally speaking, clients and counsellors develop a plan for their counselling session. However, a mental health counsellor works closely with physicians, social workers, and psychiatrists to provide the best care possible. People who have trouble coping with their emotions often seek counselling services for help. Counselling training has many benefits in both theory and practice.

Why Is Counselling So Vital?
Counselling equips kids with the knowledge and strategies needed to control their emotions and deal with challenging circumstances. It encourages greater levels of self-confidence and self-esteem, can enhance social abilities, and helps people move more smoothly through different stages of life.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
