Course overview
The Introduction to Child Counselling course explores the key aspects of what it means to be a child counsellor and the unique skills required for this role. While counselling is a valuable form of therapy for both adults and children, there are important differences between the two. Here, we focus on those distinctions and the specific techniques used when working with children.
You’ll gain insight into the most common approaches to child counselling and the strategies counsellors use to help children navigate challenges in their lives. The course covers the various issues children may face at different stages of development and how to support them by teaching emotional regulation and coping skills.
By encouraging these healthy methods early on, counsellors can help children develop normally and grow into resilient, well-adjusted adults. You’ll also learn which types of behavioural concerns can be effectively addressed through counselling interventions.
