Level 5 in Counselling-
Working with Children and Young People

JHD are excited to be offering our Level 5 in Counselling – Working with Children and Young
People.

This course is essential for any counsellors who want to specialise in working with Children and Young People. It will also be beneficial for those counsellors already working in this area but who do not hold a qualification focused on CYP.

Our Level 5 will focus on practicing safely and ethically whilst working with Children and Young people. You will develop your skills on how to develop, maintain and achieve an age- appropriate therapeutic relationship, all whilst analysing a counselling model. Throughout our Level 5 you will develop your self awareness and evidence how to practice this whilst working with your clients.

Counsellors will also complete 4 weekends developing their play therapy tools and techniques.

Success Stories

Hello everyone and thank you for listening to my JHD journey. I’m retired from the police and thought I knew everything about communication…how wrong I was. Level 2 delivered by the wonderful Brenda and Juliet gave me an absolute thirst to learn more…I knew a lot about questioning but needed polishing up on those listening skills…Level 3/4 sign up. I with many others on my lovely level 2 course started Madingley Hall and Zoom, every Thursday and one Saturday a month. I love how the amazing Sue and Isha make you think. Their delivery is all about making the learning something to look forward to. Is it hard ? It’s a challenge, is it rewarding? Absolutely…has it changed me? It’s opened my eyes, ears and given me way more empathy…would I recommend ..in a heartbeat. When I’m qualified I look forward to giving back, with JHD and probably charity work. You can’t always change what’s happened to someone, but you can change how they feel about it.
