Certificate in Christian Counselling

The course material is in-depth, allowing me to reflect on and consider the role of a Christian Counsellor at the basic /Introductory level. I received detailed and positive feedback from the Tutor, Marie Murphy, which demonstrated my ability and skills to pursue the role of a Christian Counsellor. Marie's feedback has helped to guide me in this role. Thank you.

Certificate in Couple and Family Counselling Skills

Dr Murphy made my study for diploma in Couple and Family Counselling really interesting, she is very honest and approachable. I really looked forward for all her comments and do take them on board and will implement them in my ministerial role. I just want to say thank you for helping me to see my hidden potentials and to see situations and individuals from a different point of view to which I formerly held. Mobrae

Certificate in Counselling

Good, really interesting and was grateful for the quick turn around on my assignments after them being sent to a different tutor. Very grateful and feel really good about the course and getting it completed.

Certificate in CBT 2 (Credit rated at SCQF level 8)

Marie has been an excellent tutor throughout this course and consistently supportive. Marie has also been excellent in outlining any areas where more depth or focus may have been required by me as a student in relation to coursework. Marie has also been extremely accessible for any queries and prompt to reply.

Some of the course work seems a little dated

David P, 44 days ago

Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (Credit rated at SCQF level 8)

The course materials made sense and explained what was required throughout. My tutor (Marie Murphy) was really engaging throughout and very supportive when I asked questions and probed into next steps etc. If/when I sign up for my next course I would ask for Marie to be my tutor again.

Diploma in Youth Counselling

I loved the youth counselling course, as a teacher I learned a lot about all the theories and models and also released that I have applied most of them in my years of teaching without noticing. I have also learned that my approach is a holistic approach, which I never knew. Dr. Murphy was amazing in her guidance and feedback and I learned a lot from her. I am planning on expanding in this career and also do the other counselling courses.

Diploma in Crisis Counselling

I found the course to be informative and it encouraged you to broaden your knowledge on the modules you were studying. I was unable to source the text for this module so I had to research materials for additional reading. The tutor's comments were always a source of encouragement and motivation to move on to the next assignment.

Awesome and Marie was super great Roll on next course

Kevin G, 117 days ago

Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (Credit rated at SCQF level 8)

I have gained great insight by completing this course as you might be aware in my role at work I am expected to provide therapy. I have been in this role for the past 4 years, had no confidence and was really struggling until I stated this course. I have found it very helpful and I appreciate to insightful feedback from Marie all the time.

Grief and Bereavement Counselling - A Brief Overview

The Modern World of Counselling including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Counselling and CBT were once the exclusive domain of the professional therapist, but no longer. New insights into human behaviour have helped remove the subject's mystique, making counselling more client-focused and therefore more approachable as a topic of training. With the courses, techniques and support of the Institute's tutors, counselling skills or cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) skills can be acquired by anyone ready and willing to learn.

The background of current students

We currently have students from: nursing, teaching, social work, voluntary sector, clergy and pastoral, human resources, prison services, probationary services, police officers … as well as people simply looking to make a career change or extend their current qualifications.

What kind of course do I need? How will I learn? What can you offer me?
