CPD WORKSHOP – CPCAB ENDORSED
Counselling Children, Young People and Families
The BACP now requires that students who would like to work with children and adolescents engage in additional training if the course they attend does not specialize in this area.
About the workshop
This is a CPCAB endorsed 15 hour workshop runs over two weekends. It is aimed at upskilling students and counsellors with the knowledge and expertise to work confidently with children, young people and families. Our workshop familiarises students with the BACP’s Competences for working with Young People. The course asks participants to reflect upon their own experiences and motivations for working in this specialism. We will consider the counsellor’s role and ethical responsibilities when working with this client group. There will be a focus on working within the school setting. Through a range of multisensory activities participants will have the opportunity to explore some alternatives to talking therapies. Many practical strategies and interventions from differing modalities will be shared to create a toolbox for use in sessions with young children and adolescents.
Who is it for?
This CPD training is aimed at Level 4 students and practising counsellors who wish to expand their client base to include this client group.
This training also provides an introduction to those who wish to gain a full qualification in Counselling Children and Young People.
