This professionally recognised and insurable course is ideal for both professional and personal use. It has been written to...

provide not just practitioner-level information but also to deliver support, understanding and knowledge to those who need it.

In this course, students learn about grief, its many varying forms and how it can differ from situation to situation and person to person.

We aim to offer support, practical guidance, and the steps individuals can take so they are empowered to understand and support bereavement counselling for their clients, themselves, their families and friends.

We introduce grief and bereavement, discuss each of these concepts, and explore and identify specific counselling skills used for individuals coping with grief and bereavement, as well as practical guidance individuals can use to help move them through the grieving journey.

The course also deeply examines counselling for different types of bereavement, such as losing someone to suicide, the loss of a child or a much-loved pet. We also provide more information on alternative and holistic therapies to support individuals who may need something beyond traditional counselling.

The course includes concepts such as the Dual Process Method, the Four Tasks of Mourning, the Therapeutic Alliance, Complicated Grief, CBT, EFT techniques, meditation exercises, and even how to clear chakra and meridian blockages.

At the end of the course, we explore all the practical steps the bereavement period may require, such as funeral arrangements and statutory rights. We also consider cultural differences for mourning periods and funerals.

AET3 great experience

I am greatly appreciative of the ability to undertake AET3 training with GatewayWorkshops. Kate, my tutor has been a great support throughout, assisting with my questions and providing valuable feedback. I highly recommend this course. Thank you

Enjoyed the discoveries

The course held my interest, opened my mind and led me to experience new things. This course is the first of 5 booked. I was apprehensive at first as it has been a long time since I formally studied for a subject. Information set into small chunks made the studying manageable.

I booked the course as I was curious, and within a month I had bought my first singing bowl, full set of Solfeggio tuning forks and having used them regularly all I can say is wow! The power of sound amazes me. This course and the people it has led me to meet has lifted me in so many ways. Onwards and upwards to the next course!

Great Course

The course was informative and clear. The instructor was available to contact and she answered all my questions I had.

My helth savers
