Dealing with Disruption for Students (starts at 2.40 mins)
We find ourselves in extraordinary times, and colleges and other learning institutions are closing their doors for unknown periods. This can leave learners feeling abandoned and worried, facing great uncertainty.
Moreover, the isolation and the loss of bonds – such as the camaraderie of peers – is an additional challenge.
You may well have many unanswered questions: here at Counselling Tutor, we can’t know all the answers straight away, but we can help you find out, working with ethical and awarding bodies to gather information that will be relevant and useful to you.
Do make sure that you’re a member of the Counselling Tutor Facebook page, as that’s where we’ll be posting any breaking news.
It’s also a great place to connect with tens of thousands of like-minded people interested in the world of counselling and psychotherapy: students, qualified counsellors, supervisors and tutors.
Ken reminds us that – apart from sleep, nutrition and exercise – social connectedness and continuing learning are both important elements of any plan to maintain good mental health.
The Facebook page is a great place to gain that feeling of social connection, and the Counselling Study Resource (CSR) can support you to maintain and build your knowledge during closure of face-to-face learning.
Based on years of experience of providing online online counselling lectures and resources, we have supported thousands of students to meet their study goals over many years.
With streamable lectures and other online resources mapped to your course criteria, CSR can help support your self-directed learning through this challenging time. In this way, you can keep on top of your studies and continue to progress, building your knowledge and skills while also self-isolating or practising social distancing.
Given the financial hardship and uncertainty faced by many people at this time, our management team has been looking at concession rates for those who are struggling.
Existing CSR members will be receiving an email about this; if you are not yet a member and feel the standard price is not currently affordable, do email us to enquire about these special rates.
For those for whom the concession is unmanageable, we will be putting on free lectures by guest lecturers, as well as regular Facebook Live broadcasts, for all.
