Counselling
Counsellors play a vital role in the health and wellbeing of our society today. By encouraging people to talk about their feelings, behaviours and choices a counsellor can influence a positive change in a person’s life as they overcome daily challenges or periods of heightened anxieties and distress.
Counsellors have similar attributes, they are dedicated, caring and compassionate, respect the views and beliefs of others and are looking to make a difference. Are you? Kirklees College is an ABC Awards Showcase Centre for counselling courses. We deliver courses at all levels, taught by fully qualified and practicing counsellors. You will develop your understanding of the role of a counsellor and the skills required to practice.
As your learning progresses you will interact directly with industry professionals and our Higher Education, Therapeutic Counselling at Level 4 qualification enables you to practice as a professional counsellor. To find out if counselling is for you, try one of our short courses which run throughout the year.
