A Word of Welcome & Encouragement

To all our learners — whether you are just starting (Level 2 or 3) or moving into Level 4 — we are proud of you. This is a brave step: counselling training requires honesty, reflection, openness, and resilience. You will grow not only in skill but in personal understanding, capacity for empathy, awareness, and ethical practice.

We are committed to supporting you:  (be sure to check out the about us page to see who our tutors are).

- Through expert tutors who are practicing counsellors themselves
- With peer and supervisory support
- By providing rigorous feedback and opportunities for reflection and self‑review
- By ensuring your training meets the highest standards (as outlined below)

We hope this year is one of deep learning, strong foundations, and taking confident steps into the counselling profession. You are not just learners — you are future practitioners who will make a difference.

We also want to take the time to welcome you to our new premises in St Ives, Cambridgeshire.  We are continuing to work towards creating a training centre that links to a working counselling agency so that you get to experience not only what it is like to study at Aloe Counselling but be a part of a growing community-based counselling agency.  Giving back to the local community is important to us and we cannot be happier to align with the Angels Foundation UK.

Again, welcome. We can’t wait to see all you will become and achieve.

Warm regards from Shirley and the team at Aloe Counselling Training.

Student Success and Celebrations

We are incredibly proud to announce that all students from our 2024–2025 cohorts at every level have successfully passed their courses. A special congratulations to our Level 4 Diploma students, who have successfully completed their Diplomas in Therapeutic Counselling. Your hard work, empathy, and dedication have been truly inspiring.  We couldn’t be prouder of what you’ve achieved.

It’s also wonderful to know that some of our students have already been offered paid work directly after completing their training, a reflection of the high standards, practical experience, and professionalism instilled throughout their learning with us.
