Trainee counsellor placements:
We have a limited number of places available for counsellors in training. This is because many of the women waiting for counselling need to be seen by a qualified counsellor, so we may not be able to offer you enough hours to complete your placement hours. However, if you have a background / work experience in mental health or support work, then please get in touch with your CV. Please note that you need to have at least 30 hours of 1:1 counselling client experience to be considered.
We are BACP accredited (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy)
BACP is the professional association for members of the counselling professions in the UK.
