What other trainees have said about the Placement;

“Talking Counselling provided the perfect starting point for my journey.  It provided me with a valuable opportunity to develop both my professional and personal skills, allowing me to find my voice as a therapist.  I always felt safe, supported, and encouraged to grow, even without prior clinical experience.”

Client Matching.  Great.  It’s interesting to share that all the clients I have worked with are female and have different cultural backgrounds, which I greatly enjoy when working with multicultural clients.
