Training In Couple Counselling
Our Couple Counselling course aims to impart valuable skills, knowledge, and experience in working with couples using an eight-stage model.
This comprehensive program combines theory and practice, ensuring you feel confident and competent to work successfully with couples.
We offer a combination of two face-to-face weekend sessions in Glasgow and two online weekend sessions, totalling eight days. Four of those days will be held in-person in Glasgow, while the remaining four will be conducted online. We also offer the eight-day program exclusively for delegates who prefer online learning, have logistical constraints, or personal circumstances that prevent in-person attendance in Glasgow. This means you can benefit from the training anywhere in the UK.
This course is suitable for qualified individual counsellors, psychosexual counsellors, supervisors, coaches, and psychologists. This is not an academic course.
What you can expect:
- Exceptional training by experienced leading authorities in couple counselling
- A course that combines both theoretical and practical aspects of an integrative counselling approach, focused on addressing real-life situations in couple counselling
- Guidance on communication, conflict resolution, negative behaviour patterns, and infidelity
- Effective use of worksheets for fostering couples’ development
- Enable the couple to develop a deeper understanding of influences from their family of origin
- Introduction of tools to help couples make positive changes in their relationships
- Comprehensive Training methods that will include live case studies, worksheets, directed reading, and role play
- Ongoing individual tutoring and mentoring throughout the training
Nightingale Couple Counsellors
Nightingale Marriage Counselling was established in 2002 by Florence Gray, who will lead the training. Florence has extensive experience in couple counselling and will be joined by other trainers for different modules.
Our ‘How To’ guide on working with couples incorporates theories such as attachment, object relations, splitting, transference, and projection. We use an integrative approach, combining person-centred, psychodynamic, CBT, transactional analysis, and coaching techniques to help couples recognise and change negative behaviour patterns, improve communication, resolve conflicts, and re-establish emotional connections.
Our eight-stage model of a couple counselling process spans eight modules over a four-month period. Upon completing the modules, practitioners will receive a certificate detailing the modules and hours they have completed that they can use for their CPD record.
Online Counselling
Providing you with the tools you need to take the next step.
Technology is rapidly changing the ways we can interact with each other, and counselling is no exception. This
service can be provided upon request. For the below options you will need broadband/internet connection and
somewhere quiet and private you can speak without being overheard or interrupted. Your Counsellor will agree with
you what happens should the technology fail, but in all other respects the counselling relationship will be the same
as a ‘face to face’ one. The Counsellor will speak to you from a private room …
