The accidental Counsellor Foundations Workshop offers a great set of toolbox skills for those moments when you might least expect to be called upon in a counselling or caring capacity.

In community services work we may often be the first point of contact for someone in crisis needing immediate assistance.

Even without a formal qualification in counselling, a toolbox of counselling techniques and questioning frameworks provides the necessary support to clients when they are anxious, angry, experiencing loss or a challenging time in their life.

Participants gain a greater understanding of how to communicate more effectively and learn strategies to help foster effective and trusting relationships with clients or peers.

In this workshop, we ask participants to reflect on personal values and beliefs and how they influence interactions with clients.
