Train for a Counselling Career at an Award Winning Centre

Do you want to develop and improve your listening skills?

Do you want a change of career?

Do you want to enhance your self-awareness? 

The Northamptonshire Centre for Counselling Studies (NCCS) is an award-winning counselling training centre that was first established in 2016 and operates mainly in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire.​

With all courses being part-time and designed to fit around a busy life-style, NCCS provides a safe and motivating environment within which you can thrive. ​

NCCS is an approved provider of CPCAB counselling courses. CPCAB is the UK's leading specialist awarding body for counselling and is the only awarding body run by counsellors for counsellors. All NCCS courses are regularly monitored and evaluated via a robust moderation and verification process which means that you can be assured you will receive high quality training. ​

Courses that NCCS currently provides are:

  • Level 2 Introduction to Counselling Skills
  • Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills
  • Level 3 Certificate in Counselling Studies
  • Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling

NCCS considers itself to be a ‘gatekeeper’ to the counselling profession and, because counselling is an unregulated profession, we take this responsibility very seriously. We have been assessed by the CPCAB external verification and quality-checking procedures as being a centre that has high expectations of its students. To enable students to work to these high standards, we also have equally high expectations of our staff and of the courses we teach. We therefore ensure that our courses not only focus on teaching the theory and skills of counselling but also the practical elements of being a counsellor so that we know any counsellor leaving the centre is capable of practicing safely and ethically.

Our staff come from a variety of backgrounds and their knowledge and expertise cover a variety of different areas including, relationship counselling, addictions, LGBTQ+, working with children and young people, private practice, eating issues, chronic health/pain and more. It is also important to us, that all tutors are practicing counsellors. This means that they are up-to-date on current counselling policy and relevant legislation as well as being exposed to a wide-range of client presenting issues that informs their teaching practice.

As a private training centre there are some limitations to what we can offer compared to larger training centres such as Further Education colleges or Universities. These include, student funding (e.g., Advanced Learning Loans), a library, cafeteria/coffee shop, unlimited breakout rooms and 1-2-1 specialist support for learning needs. However, we love that we are a small, intimate training centre as we are then able to offer that personal touch that is outlined in the NCCS values.
