Advise regarding training to be a counsellor.

[petalbud]

I think I'd like to become an IVF counsellor and was wondering if any ladies with experience could point me in the right direction. Which type of courses would you recommend ? Would a level2 NVQ course be a step in the right direction? Am I likely to make any money taking into consideration the high prices of the courses? Any other advise that may help me make an informed decision gratefully received.

You need to do either a nursing or a counselling qualification. I also know somebody who worked as an infertility counsellor with a social work qualification. There are lots of threads in the archive on here on how to train as a counsellor.
