Trainee/ Newly qualified Counsellors HUB

Supporting trainee counsellors/ newly qualified therapists as they develop confidence and experience 

Starting out as a trainee counsellor can feel both exciting and challenging. Building confidence, developing  your therapeutic skills and gaining client experience are important parts of your counselling journey. 

At Busy minds counselling, I offer a supportive space for trainee counsellors who are looking to gain more practice experience, develop counselling skills and work with clients in a safe , ethical and professional environment.
