It’s not completely compulsory, it’s optional. But you could have a look at some job adverts and see what their desired qualifications are to help you better

Hey, it depends. At one point it was 3 days a week because I was doing 2 placements at the same time (one online and one in person) but because of client availability, I had online clients on 2 different days. But right now I’m only doing 1 placement and I have 3 clients so I’m only there for 3 hours and I stay to make notes etc. So placement will normally be just one day and how long you’re there depends on how many clients you have, this should normally be between 3-5 clients in a day

Hey, thank you! I didn’t have to do an entry test, I didn’t know there was one lol. Once I’m qualified, I’m not 100% sure but it will vary for different groups of people so anything between £30-£50 when I’m starting out

@@ceethecounsellor it was a test to see if you could reference etc a certain style eg harvad style ..before you got on the course. You could do it however much times you could till you passed, then your able to start the course and 30 to 50 an hour isn't bad at all..how much clients do you realistically expect to average or do a day

@optimisticrealismx5829 that’s interesting, this is the first I’m hearing of it. Thank you for sharing and I’m not sure yet, but I don’t see myself having more than 6 clients in one day and I will have certain days where I’m off too

@@ceethecounsellor oh good for you, 😊 thanks for your help, videos are very helpful too

@optimisticrealismx5829 you’re welcome, I’m glad you’ve found them helpful 🙏🏾

Hi, I can’t remember but it should be stated on their application or website. I think it usually for university courses

I think it’s the whole course fee

Hey, I have some listed in this video ruclips.net/video/vOghJHqh9lw/видео.htmlsi=4A2rds7pbGVSaXZw I hope it helps

Thank you soooo much ❤❤

@user-qd5fy9ps1v you’re welcome

I did a level 3 counselling diploma and then did my masters which I’m finishing this summer. The pay will vary depending on your experience and the job. Starting salaries for therapists will be around £23-£30k but can increase as you grow in experience and depending on the demand for that job

@ceethecounsellor oh good for for you girl. that's what im doing what was your time scale for level.3 completion

That’s amazing, I wish you all the best! 🙏🏾

@@ceethecounsellor thank you so much.

I’m so happy to hear that, I hope you find the right path for you!

You’re very welcome kristina😊. Thank you for lovely comment

They fund any degrees as long as they are in the UK

No it’s not, a lot of people come into counselling from a wide variety of careers. You can study counselling on the side while maintaining your current career and you can see if it’s for you without having to drop your job. The classes are usually once a week, and for a few months so it won’t put too much demand on you. Thank you for watching, glad you found the video helpful!

It’s always in the description box of every video chrissytee.alfred@gmail.com

I’m sorry you went through that

Hi, no I don’t think so. The course has to be in the UK

Thank you so much! I’m glad it was helpful

There’s no specific budget, it just depends on what kind of material you want.

Aww I’m so glad! Thank you for your comment

Hey Kieran! Congratulations on completing your course 👏🏾. I think you could volunteer with a helpline like the Samaritans etc to help you improve on your counselling & communication skills for sure. If you want mental health experience, working in a mental health hospital might be helpful as a HCA but from experience, you won’t get to practice counselling skills much, but you could get to work on your communication with patients. But either way, as you progress through the counselling courses, your communication and counselling skills will also improve naturally even if you don’t do the volunteering or anything else. If you choose to do a masters, such experience will come in handy and increase your chances of being accepted onto the course however.

@@ceethecounsellor Thanks Cee 👍

@kieranwhite4856 you’re very welcome

Hi, I haven’t read any books on that topic so I can’t recommend any, have a look around on Google and Amazon and go for ones with a lot of positive reviews

Hi, do you mean the best route to become a counsellor?

Hi Daniel, you would need to have a UK bank account. I’m not sure how you can go about this but I’d recommend starting with a Google search or asking your university for guidance

Hi @danielikechukwu have you gotten it?

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it

Yes they can, as long as you have a UK bank account and proof of admission at the university you’re going to attend

How can I get a UK bank account?

Yeahh i definitely agree with you there! The demand is increasing so much!

You can just do an undergraduate psychology degree, you don’t need to do counselling, that’s a speciality you can do after psychology

I believe you have to have a UK bank account and a course that’s with a UK university

Aw thank you so much! I love you guys 💕

Aw thank you so much maya! 💙 appreciate your words!

Thank you so much for your kind words💙

You can be professional and have a sense of humour, it’s allowed

Thank you! I love it! 🥰

Thank you. Yes, you can do that

@@ceethecounsellor can I do the same with ncfe level 1 and 2 - thanks so much !

@siuuuuuuuuu1433 yes, as long as the course you’re doing is accredited, it doesn’t really matter which organisation it is (CPCAB, NCFE, BACP) etc.

Hey, I’m not too sure about that because most roles I’ve seen require a masters or PhD. However, you could start a private practice

@@ceethecounsellor That's a crazy amount of academia Cee. Would it need to be a specific master's ?

@andic6676 it is definitely a lot. To become a counsellor, yes you have to do specific master’s

@@ceethecounsellor Our L4 tutor says you don't need a degree to be a counsellor...it is all really confusing. My degree will help, of course, but it is starting to look like an impossible mountain to climb.

@andic6676 your tutor is right, it’s not mandatory to have a degree but it does make your chances of getting employed easier because most places ask for a degree or masters or PhD. It just depends on where you want to work.

Aww thank you so much!

Hey, I don’t have a video on that

Hi, no I don’t have a video on how much you could make as a counsellor but I have a few videos on counselling jobs where you can see the salary of various counselling jobs. 1. ruclips.net/video/Xn_ZHj6qPz0/видео.htmlsi=0SIrHAh6EtGvKTaR 2. ruclips.net/video/Rkn0A7kp32E/видео.htmlsi=ehykOC1z2NRsMyax And yes, you can work for both the NHS and the private sector at the same time

“I would encourage you to do personal therapy because it will help you to understand counselling a bit more”

You’re so welcome! ☺️

😂 that’s how it’s pronounced where I’m from

Awww thank you so much for your comment Becky. I’m glad you’ve found it helpful and I wish you the best in your level 5!! You’ve got this 👏🏾

You can apply for a masters degree in counselling psychology at a UK university

Hi, that would depend on whether your university allows it and if they are partnered with NHS services to give them placement students from your university. My NHS placement was on our university placement database and then I applied, that’s how I got the placement

Imagine that😂😂😂

Hi, I’m not quite sure. You may be able to but you can double check by emailing lendwise, it’s in the description box. Good luck

Okay thanks

@@annojetola4100 you're very welcome

Hi Bub, once you’ve done level 4 or the master’s, you would be a counsellor and psychotherapist. The terms are quite interchangeable although they have small differences, but not so much that you can’t call yourself either one. What matters more is that your course is accredited. I have a video explaining some of the differences in the terms and you can see, it’s not that different ruclips.net/video/SjKxWTIR1Yg/видео.htmlsi=AB66hDls8CyMOYfp Starting at level 2 would be the right way to begin if you don’t have any prior experience in counselling, so go for it!

@@ceethecounsellor Thank you so much, that's really helpful!

Hey, thank you so much, glad the videos are helpful for you! The route you’ve mentioned is the postgraduate route so yes, you would need a level 3 diploma and then you can go on to the masters degree (but you would already need to have an undergraduate degree). I hope that makes sense? The undergraduate route would just require you to do a counselling degree and you would become qualified. Accreditation is a higher level of qualification which you would reach at PhD level or after you’ve qualified at masters level (I hope that’s not too complicated to understand). I have a video here which might help you to understand it better: ruclips.net/video/ZzXuOyZgJ5M/видео.htmlsi=HwYVgFTUF73WB-Iq And in terms of choosing a master’s degree, you can look on the BACP website for accredited courses to save you the hassle. I have a few videos which might also help you decide and extra information in the description box of each video: 1. ruclips.net/video/IhkIWN-swm0/видео.htmlsi=qi90Pa-Imi3N5LNM 2. ruclips.net/video/aTUcr-9yCNc/видео.htmlsi=Oebrsd3GyGNN0QjD If you have anymore questions, feel free to reach out
