Peer Counselling Course

Teenage years are full of confusion and chaos. Asking teachers or adults for help can often be confrontational and turn into a power struggle. In order to assist young learners many schools have implemented a peer mentorship programme, a buddy project or a peer counselling programme where teenagers can find help from other teenagers.

These programmes are very effective and successful. This one day training course equips young teens that have been selected to be peer counsellors, buddies or mentors with skills to help other teenagers.

Solution Focused counselling is empowering in nature and does not require the young peer counsellor to know too much about the problem in order to be helpful. This workshop is full of video case study examples and role played interactions to equip the young peer counsellor with counselling and mentoring tools.
