With a wealth of teaching and training experience it became a natural choice to offer developmental opportunities to others, wishing to increase their awareness about therapies and their application. From my own therapy training and that of trainee counsellors I've taught its become apparent that learning about counselling does not stop just because you qualify as a counsellor. With this in mind I developed and ran a number of successful training courses and CPD sessions on a variety of topics, both privately and corporately. Examples of the training and CPD now being offered include:
An introduction to hypnotherapy
An introduction to counselling skills
Transactional Analysis - a guide
CBT - a guide
Bereavement and the role of grief
Dealing with grief
Supporting clients with issues of abuse
Men and grief
Personal development and self care for the professional
Group dynamics
Well being and the role of nature
Gardening strategies for counsellors
An introduction to art therapy
Coaching the client
Journalling: empowering clients to voice issues
Dementia: supporting clients and volunteers dealing with
Bereavement issues and associated dementia
Dealing with anxiety using CBT (8-10 week programme for clients)
Well-being and coping strategies (8-10 week programme)
Training opportunities
