CPCAB Level 5
Certificate in Counselling Young People
This Level 5 Certificate in Counselling Young People course leads to a tailor made CPCAB counselling qualification.
Humanistic counselling
The course is specifically designed to assist counsellors who currently work from a humanistic or integrative orientation, and who wish to extend their practice in order to work with young people. Students will learn to integrate skills and knowledge from a variety of sources, without compromising their underpinning principles of practice. These humanistic principles include Roger’s core conditions, for example:
- be authentic in relationship while also
- respecting the client’s own resources and potential for change
- therefore not require an ‘expert’ or external locus of evaluation.
Outcomes
Course outcomes will include the competencies set out in the BACP ‘Counselling Young People (11-18) Training Curriculum’ and the BACP Ethical Framework.
