Dear Suzie,
I liked what you did in Stepfamilies. I would like to learn those skills. What training would you recommend?
Thank you for your kind words – I’m delighted you found the series inspiring.
I was trained by Relate, a three year training in couple counselling which I felt was excellent. You could contact your local Relate and enquire, but the best advice I think I can offer is to get in touch with British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP House, 35-37 Albert Street, Rugby, Warwickshire CV21 2SG and ask them for their help. Their website at http://www.bacp.co.uk/education/ offers a very full explanation of what students need to know before embarking on counselling training. Good luck!
