I really appreciate the support and guidance Dr Marie Murphy has given me during my studies. I really appreciated her patience and kindness since English is not my first language. She was always there to help me with assignments and gave clear and thoughtful feedback, which made the learning process so much easier and more enjoyable. Her quick responses and support kept me focused and feeling confident during the course. I’m super grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a friendly and supportive tutor!

The course provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Through its structured materials, I was able to develop essential CBT skills that are crucial for effective practice in the field of mental health support. The knowledge I got has significantly enhanced my confidence as a mental health support counselor, enabling me to apply these techniques in real-world situations with greater assurance. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Marie Murphy for her exceptional support throughout the course. Her insightful feedback was invaluable in helping me refine my skills and deepen my understanding of the material. I am confident that I will revisit the course materials in the future, as they are well-organized and serve as a valuable resource for ongoing learning and professional development.

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.

I enjoyed the course and appreciated the extensive materials and support provided throughout my learning experience. The tutor was fantastic, always helpful, and quickly answered my questions. However, I found the final assignment "TMA" to be a bit challenging.

Marie has been very quick to return her helpful feedback, thank you. I like the style of the course very much, it matches my integrative style. There are a few anomalies around instructions about how we should write the final assessment paper, for example, whether the word count of the session segment was to include the analytical remarks or not. You wanted us to be careful of using gender-definite words which I am completely in accord with, but your study materials don't seem to have been updated to reflect this policy. These sorts of examples are the reason I gave 4 not 5 on those areas.

Really good - I would recommend it.

I am personally benefitted by undertaking this course.

I am so glad to participate in this course, it changed my perspective toward people and the world and it changed the way that I see myself. Now, I can taking good care of my self regarding my thinking and my emotions.

Echoing the same as my first answer - I enjoyed the subject matter, but felt the literature for understanding how to hand in work could've been much easier to understand and work with.

The course was very enjoyable and the information was presented clearly. I feel like my knowledge has greatly increased by doing the course.

I have enjoyed this course very much, it has been challenging but rewarding and I would thoroughly recommend it! My tutor was very supportive and a great mentor to guide me through. The course content and materials were excellent, very informative and professional at this higher level. I would rate this course as excellent for anyone wishing to develop further their counselling and therapist skills.

I liked the structure of the course. The material was interessting and was presented very clear, and the set-up in the folder was inviting to learn. I liked that there were colourful graphics to enhance the learning experience. A great benefit is that each stutdent is assigned a personal tutor to help them through the coure. Marie Murphy was my personal tutor, she was very helpful and supportive with any questions and concerns I had. Her feedback on my written work was always encouraging and uplifting. She certainly has a great gift in tutoring and I am very grateful that Marie was assigned to me. The course content is clear and in depth. I got a good overview of CBT in general and about specific disorders and different methods used. What I was missing a little is that the content of the course material is still the same as fifteen years ago. I would have liked to see more of the newer approaches or new methods that have evolved and have enhanced CBT since then. But that is my personal preference. Over all it is a great course and I can really recommend it to others. A great benefit is that it is accredited by the ACCPH which is internationally recognised.

I was impressed with the course contents, assignments and responses generally.

The course provided me with the introductory knowledge that I needed. The assignments were challenging but allowed me to demonstrate what I was learning and how I could apply it to client work. Marie Murphy was an excellent tutor and her feedback was encouraging and detailed.

I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of this course, so much so that I want to continue on my counselling journey! I haven't done any learning for over 25 years and was very proud of achieving A's for all my assignments, it goes to show whatever age you are it's never too late to learn

Really enjoyed the course and looking forward to the diploma .

I found the course very beneficial and the content was excellent. My tutor was very responsive, supportive and encouraging.

The course was very challenging ,intense and inspiring. I enjoyed it immensely and I am very grateful to have been part of this rewarding project.

I enjoyed the course and look forward to moving into the next section and learning more. The online aspect very convenient give I work. My tutor Dr Murphy was prompt and gave good feedback. I would recommend a more concise and clear 1-2 page document on expectations for assessments, assignments and dates, with clear documentation and labelling, separate to other materials, as I found this information a little disjointed to find. Otherwise very enjoyable module.

Fabulous course! Thank you!
