Counselling is generally known as a ‘talking therapy’. It provides a safe, secure environment in which the client can talk about their problems or issues without being judged or advised. The belief is that this helps the person to fully understand and overcome these issues in the best way possible for them and in their own time. A counsellor must be skilled in the art of listening and able to feel empathy and unconditional positive regard for the client, regardless of the person’s issues, race, sex and religion. Psychotherapy is also known as a ‘talking therapy’ and can take the same form as counselling.

With this course you will be able to learn how to be a competent Counsellor and Psychiatrist. Help your patient with your newly found skills by taking this course.

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.
