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

The course was very insightful. It gave me all the tools i needed to understand the reasoning behind how and why you take the approach to help the bereaved.
Maria was informative with her comments.

Certificate in Christian Counselling
The Certificate in Christian Counselling has been a deeply enriching and formative experience. The course content was well-structured and thoughtfully integrated Christian principles with core counselling approaches like Carl Rogers’ person-centred model, Egan’s framework, and Gerkin’s pastoral method. Each assignment encouraged meaningful reflection and personal growth, and I felt the course struck a strong balance between theory and application. The distance learning format offered excellent flexibility, allowing me to engage with the material at my own pace while still feeling supported.
Marie Murphy has been a consistently encouraging and insightful tutor. Her feedback was clear, constructive, and respectful, always delivered in a way that fostered confidence and deepened my understanding. I truly appreciated her presence throughout the course. One suggestion would be to include brief recorded introductions for each module or a short recommended reading list to support further learning. Overall, I’m very grateful for this experience and would gladly recommend it to others seeking a spiritually grounded approach to counselling.

Really insightful course that's provided some foundational knowledge surrounding counselling skills in practice. Dr Marie Murphy was an incredibly helpful marker who always provided great feedback and insight (while always answering any questions I had). Highly recommend.

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!
