At DATS (Diverse Abilities Therapy School), we believe counselling training is about far more than gaining a qualification.
It’s about learning to listen with curiosity, relate with empathy and understand both ourselves and others more deeply.
Our online CPCAB counselling courses combine professional training with reflective, experiential learning, creating a supportive environment where learners develop the knowledge, skills and self-awareness that underpin effective counselling practice.
Whether you’re considering a future career in counselling, looking to strengthen your helping skills or seeking meaningful personal development, your journey starts here.
There isn’t one way to become a great counsellor.
At DATS, we believe what matters isn’t where you start, but your willingness to remain curious, reflect on your experiences and continue learning.
WHY DATS?
Many people begin counselling training because they want to help others.
What they often discover is that the journey begins with understanding themselves.
At DATS, we don’t believe there’s one type of person who becomes a counsellor. We believe meaningful counselling begins with curiosity, reflection and relationship. Our training develops not only counselling skills, but also the confidence, self-awareness and relational understanding that underpin effective practice.
THE DATS APPROACH
Learning through relationship.
We believe learning happens best when people feel able to participate, question, reflect and learn alongside one another. Every learner brings different experiences, perspectives and strengths, and we believe those differences enrich the learning process.
