Our Mental Health workforce team mission is to build the size and diversity of the children’s mental health workforce to move us towards our organisational vision.

We deliver accredited courses from introduction to counselling all the way to qualifying, with additional qualifications for qualified counsellors too. In 2023 we had 420 students join all our counselling courses. On average, Place2Be train over 200 students each academic year on our Introduction to Child Counselling Skills (Level 2 Award) course, building key skills for working with children and young people. Motivated to diversify the child counselling workforce, Place2Be launched a Bursary Pathway in 2024 for those facing financial barriers when applying for counselling qualifications.
