1-DAY Accidental Counsellor

Accidental Counsellor is a skills based program that assists those who want to support or find themselves engaging with at risk people.

Sometimes when having a conversation, we find ourselves in a situation where we don’t know what to say or how to respond. Accidental Counsellor training will provide you with practical skills; whether you are talking to someone going through a difficult time, having relationship issues, not coping with life, or feeling helpless. This course will help you respond in a helpful and appropriate way.

This course will engage you with captivating videos, audios, theories, and a 24-page workbook filled with practical information and exercises to consolidate your key learnings.

You will learn how to help someone identify their strengths, that assist them to manage their problems better, and easier. You will learn how to reframe their thinking to give them a different perspective on something that previously painted a negative picture.
