Overview

Throughout our "Counselling and Psychotherapy Training" course, you can discover the transformational power of cutting-edge therapeutic approaches. This powerful programme explores advanced techniques like non-linear thinking and paradoxical interventions, and it is designed for therapists who are just starting out or have a lot of expertise. Students will study the subtleties of paradoxical interventions—such as different energisers, tranquillizers, and neutralizers—as well as the therapeutic application of humour through a structured curriculum. Gaining a grasp of these intricate ideas and how to use them practically will improve your therapeutic work, help you build stronger relationships with your clients, and help you solve problems more successfully. This course ensures a well-rounded professional development experience by emphasising ethical considerations and the qualities of master therapists, in addition to imparting advanced therapeutic abilities.

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.
