...Know Yourself!: The Fundamentals of Co-Counselling

Course learning methods

I think it's important that we use a number of different methods facilitate your learning, so on the course there will be:

  • Demonstrations
  • Feedback sessions
  • Pairwork
  • Non-verbal group exercises
  • Explanations
  • Group sessions
  • Group discussion
  • Some reading outside the course days

I will ask participants to each have a review partner: you'll be asked to have a couple of phone calls with each other during the course, to discuss how you are getting on with the course.

Also, between the taught weekends, you will be asked to do two co-counselling sessions. You will get assistance from me in arranging this.
