The Advanced Counselling Course has been a great experience and has actually exceeded my expectations in terms of learning more about myself, my personality make up and developing relationships with people. The Tutors response has been excellent and on time. The course as a package is well thought through and presented professionally.

I have recently completed the Counselling Psychotherapy Level 4 Diploma and passed with distinction. I found the course very interesting and the support offered through the student area was excellent. Joshua Cole proved to be an excellent mentor and his feedback was both quick and thorough. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in this subject.
