Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling PCL5 (CPCAB Accredited)
This course is held over 17 Wednesdays between September 2024 and June 2025.
(9.30 - 4.30 each session )
It is held exclusively online via Zoom ensuring greater accessibility to all.
This qualification is designed to give qualified counsellors the knowledge, skills and competencies to work as self-employed counsellors in independent and private practice. It also equips counsellors to take on a senior role in an organisational context where client assessment, referral and routine evaluation are part of the role.
At Independent Counselling Training (ICT) the course is integrative. We see integration as offering our knowledge, skills and understanding through the therapeutic relationship we have with clients.
You will have the opportunity to expand your knowledge of psychopathology especially in terms of assessment and the impact this may have on your work as a private practitioner.
As you would expect this course includes experiential learning as well as skills and theory.
