Student Comments and Profiles

Our graduates last year completed placements with the Primary Mental Health Service in the NHS, RASA, and CAIS to provide one-to-one counselling for over a hundred clients across north Wales. Here are some of their comments about the course and placement experience:

"I feel that this course has allowed me to develop my communication and listening skills that are most valuable in both my personal and professional life. My friends and family have expressed how I present myself as more confident now than I was before I started the counselling course."

"This course helped me to develop my soft skills such as teamwork, self-management, written and verbal communication skills. I believe these skills, combined with my improved abilities to regulate my emotions by critically reflecting upon my experiences and perspective-taking, greatly increased my future job prospects."

"Beyond the academic training of the course, the process of the course has taught me more about how I can better help myself in order to help others."

"I have gained perspective, whilst recognizing that I am only just moving out from a sheltered bay and into an expecting ocean, where all encounters behind and before me are grist for the mill."

"The element of the course I value the most is the confidence I’ve gained through facing my fears and the newly gained confidence I have to face future ones."
