In the ever-evolving field of counselling, continuous professional development isn't just a requirement - it's a necessity for providing the best possible support to those in need. Choosing the right trainer to guide your development is a crucial decision.
With over a decade of dedicated experience, I offer a unique and deeply insightful training environment. My background is not purely academic; it is forged from years on the front line of a national helpline, where I specialised in training volunteers to provide crucial counselling support to vulnerable young people and adolescents. This experience has given me an unparalleled understanding of the practical challenges and nuanced skills required to connect with and support vulnerable individuals accessing counselling.
My training modules are meticulously crafted, drawing not only from established psychological principles but also from extensive hands-on experience in training, active counselling, and ongoing research. I don't just teach theory; I bring it to life with real-world scenarios and proven techniques that have been tested and refined in a high-pressure support environment.
By choosing to train with me, you are not just fulfilling your CPD requirements. You are investing in a learning experience that is rich, practical, and directly applicable to your work. You will gain not only enhanced skills but also a deeper understanding of the complexities of counselling, empowering you to make a more significant impact in the lives of those you support. Let's work together to take your professional practice to the next level.
