Overview

What is This Course About?

The Online Counselling Course makes its way around the conversational style of therapy known as counselling. It gives a working definition of counselling and outlines the skills needed to carry out the function in a person-centred way. The course also provides thorough details on different counselling theories underpinning the practice. A clear explanation of counselling approaches and methodologies, such as psychodynamic counselling, gestalt therapy, and behavioural and cognitive approaches, can also be found within the course.

Most people face issues at some point in their lives. While many such issues go away on their own, some may cause emotional distress for people and make them vulnerable, erratic or under-confident. This is where counselling becomes integral. Being an effective listening helper, which is the main point of counselling, goes a long way toward enabling others to open up their pent up emotions and discover ways to resolve their issues. By choosing this course, students will get to understand the imperatives of counselling and develop the skills needed in a helping role. It will also aid them in growing their awareness of themselves and others, which is vital to establishing an enduring counselling relationship and practice.

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.
