​
At Training for Counsellors, we pride ourselves on being able to offer quality training and learning opportunities, honouring the same values that we bring to our therapeutic practice. Working from person-centred principles of learning and education, our aim is to create a space in which learning is facilitated in ways that makes learning collaborative, experiential, informative and enjoyable.
The courses that we deliver are designed and developed to exacting standards and are either already recognised by professional bodies or in progress of gaining that accreditation. Meanwhile, the CPD is current and relevant. We actively seek - and are proud - to work with others, inviting practitioners who are knowledgeable and experienced in their special fields of interest to provide the best learning opportunities possible to help us to keep up with the changing demands of our work.
Our bespoke training space nestled near the M65 in Blackburn is purposefully design for experiential learning and intimate group work. If you are looking for a flexible space to offer group supervision or training we may be able to help.
