Diploma In Counselling

Earn a living as a counsellor, and help other people

Counselling courses change lives.

Here's why...

The shocking news about today's problems...

Depression, divorce and sexual problems are all on the increase.

Sadly, that's good news for you as a would-be counsellor.

It means the demand for counsellors can only grow.

Life is more complex than it used to be. Which means there's an increasing demand for counsellors. Let's take just four examples:

1. Many people no longer have a network of family members or a community. They have no one whom they can turn to for help. A counsellor can provide the advice and support that others can't bring.

2. Women are no longer willing to tolerate abuse or bad behaviour from their partners. They often require their partners to seek advice. 66% of mid-life divorces are initiated by women. Counsellors can help bring partners together.

3. Old people are separated from the family, and have no one to turn to. After a busy life, they can become lonely and troubled. Counsellors can provide real solutions.

4. Because their parents work, children often lack the detailed care and support given by parents. Some turn to drugs. Other children have problems at school, and stop going. Again a counsellor can help.

And that means more people are seeking the support of a counsellor. So there's a bigger opportunity for you to become a counsellor.

You can be the person who, day by day, helps the world become a slightly better place.

Our home-study counselling course is a complete programme that shows you step-by-step how to become a counsellor.It includes a large ring-bound binder crammed with modules, exercises and assignments, plus a course text book, a course box for your notes, and other items you'll need.

In addition, you get all the support you need from your tutor and your course advisor, plus the marking of your assignments.

And there are many other aspects of the course that I'll come to in a moment.

We created the course to help people like you become a counsellor. Other counselling courses were either too academic, too brief, or lacking in interactivity to do the job. Which is why we had to prepare our own.

And for the past eight years we've been improving it, revealing to students the methods used by counsellors, and showing them how they can apply these techniques in their own lives.
