Starting your journey into counselling or psychotherapy can feel overwhelming. With so many different theories, training providers, costs and qualifications to consider, it can be difficult to know where to begin.
Training in counselling and psychotherapy requires time, commitment, and a personal investment. The range of courses available can differ widely in quality, and the career opportunities they offer can vary significantly. It’s important to choose a training provider that aligns with your personal and professional goals.
If you are interested in learning more about our Transactional Analysis courses and the process of becoming a fully qualified counsellor or psychotherapist, we are here to guide you.
Join us for a one-hour presentation with Link Centre Partner Dr Rachel Hopping where you’ll explore the opportunities we offer at The Link Centre. Learn about the different pathways to achieving your goals in counselling and psychotherapy.
We look forward to helping you take the next step in your career!
