persona development & training
London
Persona has been providing personal and professional development programmes
founded on the philosophy of the Person-Centred Approach for over 20 years,
specialising in the design and delivery of professionally accredited, post
graduate level training in Counselling and Psychotherapy. The central values of
the Person-Centred approach are a major influence in the design, structure of
the programmes we provide as well as how they are delivered and managed. Our
trainers and facilitators are committed to fulfilling their roles in ways that
embody a Person-Centred philosophy, principally a trust in each person’s ability
to find a way to direct his/her own development, based on a belief in the
actualising tendency; the tendency of the individual to grow and develop to
their full potential. Persona also provides training at certificate level: a
Certificate in Counselling Skills for individuals and bespoke programmes in
Applied Counselling Skills for organisations. These programmes focus on the
development of intra-personal and inter-personal skills applied to different
organisational settings, such as education, healthcare, social work, social care
or HR. The Persona Staff Team are all experienced counsellors, psychotherapists
and trainers. As facilitators, the team are committed to facilitating the
process of each programme by communicating acceptance, empathic understanding
and congruence and through these core attitudes provide the learning environment
and structure of the course. Our programme are also designed to be accessible
for those who have busy work schedules.
