Available Courses
A psychodynamic counsellor will strive to help clients recognise the possible source of some of their issues such as unhelpful relationships patterns. Another important aspect of psychodynamic work is the way various feelings such as anxiety are being managed. Psychodynamic counselling tends to offer an experience that is different from the one that is expected.
Do you have relevant work experience or qualifications and now want to become a qualified psychodynamic counsellor within three years? Do you want to work for major mental health organisations or open your own private practice?
Nescot can give you the opportunity.
Our team at Nescot are dedicated to taking you through rigorous professional training with the view to producing skilled competent practitioners, equipped with the knowledge and empathy to make a real difference to your clients.
