This 4-hour live online training session looks at how neurodiversity – in a partner or child – can impact relationships, identifies practical steps that can help, and much more…
Fresh, engaging and very, very informative. I learnt things to use in my personal life as well as with the couples I work with.
Why take this course
Neurodiversity has been given significant media attention recently, which is hugely positive. As a result, more people are seeking out information and answers for their questions and personal experiences. As part of that process, they may well seek some counselling or therapy. It’s important then that, as therapists or counsellors, our knowledge, skillset, language and stories stay as up-to-date and relevant as possible to best serve our clients.
This course has been independently accredited by the internationally recognised CPD Standards Office for 4 hours of CPD training.
On completion of this training you’ll receive CPD certificates from the College and the CPD Standards Office.
Specialist training for anyone helping with relationship issues…
In most cases, applying the skills and techniques learned in the Couples Therapy Online Masterclass is all that’s needed to help a couple move forward in their relationship. Sometimes though, some extra focused knowledge of the challenges within specific types of relationship can help a therapist assess more quickly and meaningfully the relationship dynamic, allowing them to help the couple more effectively to find a constructive and compassionate way forward.
In this session, we take time to clarify what’s most helpful when working with couples who are impacted by neurodiversity in some way, to identify practical steps that can help, to explore how to help couples where one or other is level 1 autistic, or has ADHD, and much more >
Jennifer Broadley spoke from such a helpful experience and I could have listened to her all day! She made the content enjoyable and I now feel confident to push forward with my couples work.
