This is a 2 day introductory course, open to all who are interested in learning about the basics of counselling skills and is also useful for those just interested in learning more about themselves.
We will be introducing using counselling skills in a helping relationship whether that be in a school, workplace or counselling room. Attendees will be able to facilitate help-seekers becoming less distressed and therefore lead more satisfying lives.
Course content
As well as exploring interpersonal communication, we will also look at personal development issues and the application of theory to practice. We will be looking at the basics of theory and approaches including empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard. In addition, you will develop skills such as active listening and reflection through developing self awareness and self reflection.
While on the course, you will also look at knowing what your role as a helper is, and, as a result develop good and safe boundaries and your counselling skills within the work context.
