Bonuses

Bonus 1. Free mentoring when you complete the course (Value £460)

Once you complete the course, we’ll give you three months’ free business mentoring.

You’ll have a personal mentor who'll help you set up your own practice (if that's your choice).

For three months after getting your Diploma you'll get one-to-one advice and support from an active practitioner.

So if you're unsure on how to launch your own practice, this mentoring programme will put you on the road to success.

And because it's all part of the Institute's course, it won't cost you a penny.

Bonus 2. You get the files for a free counsellor's website (Value £385)

You get a free counsellor’s website, complete with sample text. Just change the text to suit your needs, upload it to your site, and you’ll have your own website!

If you went to a designer, they would charge you at least £385 for this work. And because we know what clients want from a counsellor’s website, the pages are better than what a designer would provide.
