Responding when the need arises

So many aspects of our personal and professional lives involve informal but often vitally important counselling situations. This course explores practical counselling skills for those who find themselves in a counselling role, through their work or everyday life.

Participants will learn a series of structured, discussion-based tools which allow humans services professionals to engage and support clients, and anyone to better support others.

We cover a range of communication and engagement skills in either a one-day format for our public training calendar or an advanced two-day version which is available for custom clients.

Topics include:

Role of everyday counsellors
Building relationships
Listening techniques
Body language
Normalising statements
Clarifying tools
Solution focused responses
Live practice and individual feedback
Referring and promoting help seeking
