FEEDBACK FROM COURSE MEMBERS
"They leave no stone unturned as far as giving you the right information to help you become an informed counsellor. I have used Counselling tutor since the beginning of my journey studying to become a counsellor, I am now in my second year of private practice."
- Penny, DEVON (United Kingdom)
"The course has highlighted things I would never have thought of. Rory and Ken have a very congruent way of delivering, you can see they have "walked the walk" and are genuinely sharing their experiences on how to best transition from face to face counselling to on-line and/or telephone counselling."
- Gerri, CO TYRONE (Northern Ireland)
"The course is packed full of all the information and knowledge you need to give you the skills to take your practise online. The learning is very comprehensive and both Rory and Ken explain things in a manner which is serious, factual and informative as well as including the right amount of humour and anecdotes from their own experiences and practices."
