What our Students Say:

"I thoroughly enjoyed the Counselling course and will consider another one soon. I must also add that the prompt replies and positive feedback from my assessor was exceptional and very motivating."

R MacKenzie - Edinburgh, Counselling Diploma

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank the NCCHL team and tutor for quick responses over the period of taking my course and that I have really enjoyed every minute of it."

J Dewberry - Dorset, Counselling Diploma

"I'd definitely recommend this course. It is a recognised awarding body certificate for one thing which is impressive at interviews and on your CV, and it goes into a great deal of things. There is more breadth than depth and some things are only touched on fairly lightly, but for someone like a school chaplain it is an amazing course to do. I am finding that it is complementing my youth work training and my child protection training quite well. 

It is not on a par with BACP counselling qualifications and therefore doesn't make you a recognised counsellor for, say, the NHS. But the things you have to do to get BACP status these days mean that it's only really worth it for a full-time professional counsellor (450 hours of observed practice time for instance, and a qualification, and indemnity insurance, and lots of other things!) This is a good course for somebody in youth work/ teaching etc. or anyone who will have to do a bit of counseling and who wants to know which way is up!"

J Regan, Cumbria - Counselling Diploma
