Use Interpersonal Skills with Therapy Clients

Course Introduction
The main objective of this unit is to formalise procedures and establish outcomes from the application of interpersonal skills by the therapist in contact with the client. It has always been the case that discussion on a wide range of issues occurs when all physical non-medical therapies are applied. The reasons why the client is seeking therapy issues may vary greatly. It is meeting client’s needs and re-establishing a confident and forward looking attitude, intergrated through the combination of applying interpersonal skills and the therapy treatments that is important.
This unit is an excellent therapy to add to your existing skills. Suitable for those currently employed in beauty therapy, holistic and health related sectors. Upon successful completion of the course you will be awarded with a unit of credit that is recognised in industry and will enable you to gain insurance. You could also build up units to achieve a full level 3 Diploma in Holistic Therapies with our accreditation of prior learning procedure
