Assignment Guidance - complete assignment exemplars and portfolios of work that have been passed by both tutors and awarding bodies.

Modalities covered include Person Centred, Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, Integrative Therapy, Attachment Theory, EMDR and Behavioural-based modalities such as CBT and REBT.

LEARN MORE ABOUT CSR

Rory and I (Ken), taught counselling at practice level for a good number of years and we know first-hand the pressures of balancing a study, work and home life.

We recognised, in our own students, that assignments can cause anxiety, new theories can seem daunting and that the requirement to hit academic criteria, can sometimes feel like an impossible task.

The Counselling Tutor Facebook group is the ideal meeting place for students of counselling and psychotherapy all over the world. The private group is a great place to exchange views, get support and have a general chin wag about counselling related issues.

Counselling tutor offer support and resources for students undertaking a counselling course who feel they would like some extra support.
