“Welcome to Counselling College, where every learner’s journey matters. As a practising therapist and educator, I’ve seen how the right guidance can empower idividuals to unlock their potential and transform lives. Our Level 5 Diploma in Counselling isn’t just a course—it’s a pathway to becoming a skilled, compassionate professional in a supportive and nurturing
environment.
With our small cohorts, you’ll never feel like just another student. You’ll have the opportunity to connect deeply with our team and your peers, ensuring that your learning experience is both personal and impactful. I’m proud to share my knowledge and passion for counselling with you, and I look forward to seeing how you’ll use your skills to make a difference in the world.”
“At Counselling College, we believe in the power of personalised learning. With over a decade of experience in counselling and education, I’ve seen the incredible growth that happens when students are truly supported, both academically and emotionally. Our program is built on this philosophy—we’re not a factory churning out counsellors, but a close-knit community
dedicated to helping you thrive.
The workshops we include aren’t just a part of the curriculum—they’re transformative experiences where theory comes to life and connections are made. My goal is to ensure that every student leaves this course not only with a qualification but with the confidence and practical skills to succeed. It’s an honour to walk alongside you on this journey toward becoming a professional counsellor.”
