While a recognised Counselling Diploma and 150 hrs post-qualification, supervised practice are essential entry criteria, personal qualities such as creativity, resilience, an optimistic enthusiastic attitude and the capacity to thrive in a challenging learning environment are vital characteristics for these demanding but rewarding roles.
We require direct experience of work with young people in distress, and evidence of a clear understanding of young people’s needs and issues.
We have prepared the ground for this important development by firmly establishing Contact Youth as the leading NI regional, independent, professional, rapid-response schools counselling option for young people in crisis and transition. We offer excellent terms and conditions, a commitment to first class training, independent clinical supervision and support towards BACP accreditation. If you are interested in joining the lead NI regional schools counselling agency, send an SAE (44p stamp) or email us at
