CERTIFICATE IN ADLERIAN COUNSELLING - RESIDENTIAL
This new one year part time residential course
has been created for people in full time work
and anyone else who might otherwise be unable
to access such training. The course comprises
180 hours and provides a firm foundation in counselling
theory, skills and personal development, using
an integrative approach underpinned by the theory
and practice formulated by Alfred Adler, whose
thinking has influenced psychodynamic, cognitive
and humanistic approaches. Adlerian counselling
takes an holistic view of the person in his or
her social setting, exploring the purpose of the
behaviour. It emphasises a counselling relationship
based on equality, respect and encouragement.
The course presents both the theory and practice
of counselling with an emphasis on experiential
work and personal development. Students are required
to have ten hours of their own personal counselling
each year during the course. We have a list of
Counsellors who are willing to negotiate favourable
rates for students seeking counselling.
Timing: One year programme, starting in September,
10 weekends monthly, plus eight days summer school
in July. Each weekend will commence on Friday
evening and continue through to Sunday lunch.
In addition there will be 4 full day workshops
per year at the weekends over the course of the
year. There is an expectation of some 16 hours
study a month in addition to the training sessions.
