UPCOMING AWARD WINNING WORKSHOPS WORKING WITH COUPLES
CERTIFICATE IN COUPLES THERAPY
We have some spaces on the "Communication and Difference" module
Early booking runs out on June 20th
scroll down for details.
The Certificate in Couples Therapy Course is designed for people who usually work one to one, and want to work with couples…or those who are doing some work with couples and would like to update their skills. We have had great feedback from people who have been couples therapists for years, who attended our workshops, and found them enlightening and beneficial. At the other end of the spectrum, counsellors sometimes come who have no intention working with couples, they attend these courses for their own learning about relationships (as they say, their clients are all in relationships – so these courses really help them with their clients…..and they are in relationships themselves too!!!).
All six modules are run several times each year, by one or all of the trainers: Juliet Grayson, Nicola Jones and Julie Newberry, Bernd Leygraf, Kim Wallis, Peter Gregory and Zofia Zyborska. The six modules can be taken in any order, and you do not need to take them all. Some people take 4 or 5 years to complete all 6 modules. You decide what you want to book based on your personal needs, diary and finances. Each module is endorsed by NCIP- National Council Of Integrative Psychotherapists. for 14 hours CPD .
