The programme is informed by the BACP Counselling Children and Young People training
curriculum (4-18 years) and is designed to provide a comprehensive professional training in
counselling for young people aged 10-18 years. Academically, the programme will focus on
examining key theoretical frameworks which are relevant for working therapeutically with
