Course
Description

This valuable workshop is a must-have in any professional development toolbox. It is designed for anyone who is not employed as a counsellor, however, often finds themselves in a counselling role after conversations or requests for support that arise from clients or colleagues – honestly that could be all of us.

You might have a busy front line administrative role, be a supervisor or team leader, nurse, teacher, coach, support worker, early childhood educator or complimentary health practitioner.

This workshop is a package of engaging activities, discussion and opportunities to practice learning so you can respond with increased skills and confidence. We focus on developing your awareness and understanding whilst building practical ‘how to’ capabilities within a counselling framework.

The big bonus is that you can upskill anywhere you are. We can deliver via a live interactive webinar format or a face-to-face team building session.
