| This video was a project between Pete Allen-Worth for his university degree, and Dean Richardson of iCounsellor.co.uk. Purpose - to demonstrate (and film) counselling skills. 1/3 - In this first video we demonstrate an integrated approach to basic counselling skills - whereby the counsellor demonstrates a whole series of techniques: non-directiveness, open questions/curiosity, reflections, summarising, echoing, interpretation and advanced empathy. This purpose in this role play is to give the observer an idea of how a counsellor may behave toward his client. In all videos the part of the client is role played by Liam Devaney, but Dean Richardson is a real counsellor demonstrating real techniques. Dean Richardson is a individuals psychodynamic and systemic/psychodynamic couples counsellor. He is an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has has been practising for over ten years. He works in his own private practice in Portsmouth. www.icounsellor.co.uk |
