A well planned and organised Foundation course that will equip participants to be accepted as a co-counsellor within the Co-Counselling International (CCI) network. The syllabus will include all of the co-counselling interventions and styles of working within CCI.
A secure group situation in which you can learn to use co-counselling in both the client and counsellor role, for your personal growth
Useful handouts to back up the training, and other relevant information
Respectful and supportive attention
Prior discussion if I have concerns about your readiness to be accredited as a co-counsellor within the CCI network
Information about co-counselling groups and events, locally, nationally and internationally
When you are accredited, a list of co-counselling contact persons in the UK who have contact details of co-counsellors in various local areas

Your acceptance onto the co-counselling network at the end of the course depends on the following:

A minimum of 85% attendance on the timetabled sessions, plus at least one practice session outside of the timetabled sessions
An understanding of and competence in the co-counselling method, and a willingness to adhere to this method when using co-counselling within CCI
The ability to be non-judgemental and respectful to others
The ability to keep confidentiality
The ability to hold back from expressing your own feelings, when it is your turn to give someone else attention
A respect for others’ boundaries and needs within the group
All the above points are discussed within the course.
Spending two hours reading the written handouts before the final weekend.
