Training for Counsellors

The ChangeWorks counselor training course develops skilled, insightful facilitators and community workers.

This is a powerful and challenging training experience, consisting of three stages.

 

Stage one

Consists of ten weekly two-hour evening training sessions beginning with an experiential group process, then followed by an introduction to the content of the Change Works programmes as described in our Manual, together with a full explanation of the creative drama-based modalities that we use within the program.

 

Stage two

“When the Facilitator becomes the Story”

Focusing with a client group through the medium of story, poetry and imagination.

Using our imagination through story, our life is a story. Using our imagination we can create a future. The young people that we work with have stories to tell and they need someone to hear them.

The workshops are designed to develop capacity in creative and drama-based counselling procedures.

 

Stage three

On completion of both Stages you will be invited to participate in an experiential component as a support facilitator in an existing client group over 16 weeks.
