An Introduction to Counselling
Date : 12th June 2008
Duration : 1 day
Venue : The Ear Foundation
Cost :
£80.00
Following the enormous success of our counselling courses with Kristina English and David Luterman we are delighted to programme a new one day course based on their resources led by Sue Archold and Suzanne Harrigan.
A high degree of specialist technical knowledge is essential nowadays when supporting children with hearing losses. However professionals also need emotional intelligence to support the families as they come to terms with the identification of deafness in their child. And this often means that we are called upon to use counselling skills on an almost daily basis.
This one day course does not claim to train you to be a counsellor; instead we aim to explore the skills and strengths needed for non-professional counselling. Using resources developed with The Ear Foundation by some of the worlds leading experts in this field, this day will help you reflect upon and finely tune your current practice.
For all professionals working with deaf children and their families
