Couple relationship counselling is a rewarding and flexible career. Currently Bristol needs more couple counsellors.
A recent survey show Bristol and Weston Super-Mare are UK divorce hotspots but special couple counselling skills are not widely available. Leading trainers, Tavistock Relationships, hope to fill this skills gap by offering their specialised couple counselling training in Bristol. They are offering two courses options to suit either beginners or existing practitioners. These will start in January 2017 and run over two terms. Applications for either course must be completed by November 30 2016
Couple work is rewarding and stimulating. It’s ideal for people who like to understand the dynamics of relationships and want help people professionally. Many couple therapists originally switch from ‘office’ jobs or have small children and seek a more flexible career. Tavistock offer two courses depending on the student’s level of experience.
