CICS Foundation Certificate in Counselling Skills and Practice

This Foundation Certificate in Counselling Skills and Practice has been designed to offer a solid level of understanding of counselling and its application, either as a stand-alone course or as an access course to our Diploma in Clinical Sexology.

The therapeutic theoretical orientation of the course is “pluralism”. Pluralism is an emerging way of thinking about therapy, based on the fundamental assumption that no one therapeutic approach has the monopoly on understanding the causes of distress or on the most helpful therapeutic responses.

Instead, it suggests that different clients are likely to want, and benefit from, different things in therapy.

We teach a range of contemporary approaches to therapy, to best serve each unique client, whilst maintaining the centrality of the client, relational working and the therapeutic alliance to all counselling and psychotherapy work.
