Testimonials
“The course has been so rich on many levels. The learning and role plays were a key combination to help with my understanding of the topics. I have loved this course, I’m sad that it’s coming to an end but excited to continue my training“
Testimonials
“It is fascinating how the course is structured from the beginning to the end, also how well theory and practise are combined. If this course is a taster for the diploma then I can rest assured that by the end of the training I would be a well-rounded counsellor. At the beginning of the ICCS I had been told to trust the process and I didn’t know how to, but now, being at the end of it, I realised what the tutor meant by that.“
