Years of industry experience brought to the learning by our tutors
Tutor experience, not the age of ICT.Our tutors bring over 20 years of experience across the counselling industry. That professional grounding supports training for practitioners who already understand the work and want to take their learning further.
Our live online courses bring tutors and students together in real time, creating the same interactive, supportive learning experience as an in-person course. Through small groups, guided discussion and active participation, you have the space to reflect on your practice and develop professionally.

Three connected elements shape our approach: the space to participate, the opportunity to reflect and the support to develop.
Learning in a small group allows a personal, focused approach. You are part of a supportive learning environment where professional discussion and individual attention have room alongside the course content.
Reflective discussion is central to our teaching approach. It gives practitioners space to consider their understanding, engage with professional perspectives and reflect on how their learning relates to their practice.
