Dr Murphy made my study for diploma in Couple and Family Counselling really interesting, she is very honest and approachable. I really looked forward for all her comments and do take them on board and will implement them in my ministerial role. I just want to say thank you for helping me to see my hidden potentials and to see situations and individuals from a different point of view to which I formerly held.

Marie has been an excellent tutor throughout this course and consistently supportive. Marie has also been excellent in outlining any areas where more depth or focus may have been required by me as a student in relation to coursework. Marie has also been extremely accessible for any queries and prompt to reply.

I loved the youth counselling course, as a teacher I learned a lot about all the theories and models and also released that I have applied most of them in my years of teaching without noticing. I have also learned that my approach is a holistic approach, which I never knew. Dr. Murphy was amazing in her guidance and feedback and I learned a lot from her. I am planning on expanding in this career and also do the other counselling courses.Response : Thank you Minette for your review. We are very pleased to hear that you have learned a lot about the theories and models and the critical reflection, evaluation and application of these within your role. We are also delighted to hear that Dr Murphy was amazing in her guidance and feedback and that you learned a lot from your tutor. Wishing you all the best for the next steps in your journey.

I found the course to be informative and it encouraged you to broaden your knowledge on the modules you were studying.
