Training

Counselling Solutions recognises that Organisations and Professionals are adopting a planned and structured approach to professional training.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) obligations are common to most professions and help to maintain, develop or increase knowledge and skills.  CPD is often linked to registration or re-registration to practice, demonstrating an individual’s commitment to competent performance and can involve any relevant learning activity, whether formal and structured or informal and self-directed.

Counselling Solutions can provide a range of cost effective bespoke trainings and workshops which are based on the needs of the Organisation to help support, develop, enhance and maintain the skills and experiences of professionals and key workers. All trainings and workshops combine theory and practice (experiential) to meet different learning styles.  Our aim is to extend and increase the skills, knowledge and self-awareness of professionals and frontline staff working with children, young people and adults.  Examples include: Attachment Theory, Introduction to Neuroscience, Basic Counselling Skills, Supervision Skills, Creating through Play, Projective Drawings, Clay, Sandtray, Team Building.

Course Content:

DDP was developed by Dan Hughes. It is attachment focused and family based, tailored to meet the needs of children who have experienced trauma and loss. It focuses on facilitating the child’s ability to establish a secure attachment with his/her caregivers. Level One covers theories and research of Attachment, Intersubjectivity and Trauma which are the primary models used for relationship development and trauma resolution. Various approaches are blended into the the model including Family Therapy, Ericksonian Hypnotherapy, Psychodynamic principles and interventions congruent with Theraplay and Narrative work. Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity and Empathy are actively communicated to the child in order to co-regulate the affect associated with their past experiences and to co-construct new meanings of these experiences for them. DDP also provides a model of parenting and support.
