Helping, supporting and teaching so many

Without Willows help through counselling I don’t think I would still be here. They really helped me to understand that I am not responsible for everyone

A client

Willows has been a valued part of our Swindon community for many years and I have been very pleased to visit and engage with them as South Swindon’s MP

Rt Hon Robert Buckland QC, MP Member of Parliament for South Swindon.

Teaching at Willows is both an honour and a privilege. As a teaching team, we share a collective belief in quality training that offers encouragement, appropriate challenge and a desire to work at depth in order to support students at all levels to explore and embrace the fullness of who they are. I believe that modelling my own authenticity and vulnerability is one of the greatest gifts I can offer my students.

Willows Tutor

I attended Willows postgraduate Trauma Counselling course and without doubt, it has been the most significant part of my learning journey so far. From both a personal and professional perspective, my learning has been considerably enriched as a result of the 12 months spent studying with Willows. The content of the course was both fascinating and stretching in equal measures!
