Entry requirements

Students need to be 19 years old and over to join. A large part of each session will involve experiential interacting (eg. In the listening skills� session), so it will be necessary for the students to be open to take on the role of either �client�, listener or observer at any session. (This will be carried out in a safe and secure way.)
