Overview
What is This Course About?
The Online Counselling Skills Course lays the groundwork for understanding the range of basic skills needed in the counselling practice and how they can be developed and enhanced. It starts out by explaining the philosophy of counselling and the need for productive communication across a range of settings. It then introduces specific advanced counselling skills, describing each skill in detail and providing some samples of its effective use. Finally, the course provides practical information on how to effectively respond and manage certain situations and crises.
Counselling takes place when a person seeks the help of someone else to understand and find solutions to problems that could be getting in the way for that person to live a full and satisfying life. There is more to this practice than just being able to listen to an issue. As such, it requires a range of skills to have a strong foundation in creating helpful conversations. Through this course, students will be able to explore counselling in-depth and understand the necessary skills to excel in such practice. They will also find effective methods to practice and enhance those skills, which should help them become more proficient as listening helpers.
