Uniquely, our courses integrate counselling theory, models and skills to enrich and enhance your learning experience. Our site is especially designed to be interesting, relevant, and above all, practical.

We offer a comprehensive range of distance and online learning: Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and other helping intervention courses. With the current emphasis in many organisations on skills training even more students are appreciating the proven flexibility of distance and online learning, with the result that our courses are now more popular than ever.The courses are both modular and student centred, ensuring your specific training needs are met.

For nearly twenty eight years we have provided counselling courses for the caring professions, voluntary sectors, and individual students, both in the UK, and overseas. From basic Certificate courses, right through to advanced two year Diploma courses, students have turned to the Institute over the years for additional professional qualifications and to develop their own personal skills.

I feel sure that on this website you will find the course to fit your unique individual requirements. I look forward to welcoming you into the student body of the Institute.
