I was amaized at the turn around time of the process of applying, interviewing, induction and training to start seeing clients. The process was quick and smooth. Thank you TAC crew for a smooth ride to launch me on my first face to face clients placement work. Although my time was short but I came away with grounding practical experience which was a fantastic opportunity. Thank you to whole team from administration to supervision and placement management.
The Awareness Centre has been massively supportive in enabling me to qualify as a counselling therapist. They gave me confidence and guidance in my work. The training was detailed and simplified so I could understand. Clinical Supervision sessions were the anchor to the client work. The TAC team are committed and passionate, and they are always quick to reply to any queries, Thankyou for a great experience.
The Awareness Centre was the best decision I made for a counselling placement. I like that I always have clients to work with which helps me to build up my client hours. I have a lot of support from my supervisor, colleagues and team leader which has helped build my confidence while working with my clients. I am learning a lot about how to support my clients, managing my diary, using the IAPTUS system. I am enjoying my placement and can’t wait to gain more experience that is helping me on my professional journey as a therapist.
I have just completed a four-month counselling placement with NHS Lambeth, and it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Throughout this period, I had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients, each presenting unique issues and concerns. This variety allowed me to apply different therapeutic modalities tailored to each client’s needs, which significantly enhanced my practical skills. I felt fortunate to be part of a supportive and knowledgeable team, whose guidance made the experience both smooth and educational. The supervision and feedback I received were invaluable in helping me grow as a therapist. I also appreciated the collaborative environment, which encouraged my professional development and confidence. The experience deepened my understanding of the challenges and rewards of working within the NHS. I leave this placement with a stronger skill set and greater clarity in my approach to therapy. I am deeply grateful to everyone who contributed to my growth during this time
I have been doing a placement with The Awareness Centre for four weeks now. I feel very honoured to be doing a placement with TAC.
I was extremely nervous before my initial meeting with my clients however my supervisor, team leader, IT supporter and the administrator have all been very helpful and encouraging. My clients are presenting with a range of issues. I am there with them and hope that we are creating positive therapeutic relationships.
I am thoroughly enjoying my placement with The Awareness Centre. Right from the outset it has been a great experience, from the onboarding training, the supervision and the structured way everything is run. If there are any issues or concerns the team are on hand to help. This placement is proving to be an enriching experience, so much learning and so much growth for myself, with each week I find my confidence increasing. It feels very rewarding to be working with clients and I look forward to continuing my development with an organisation that truly cares.
