Australian Counselling Directory

I've been a member of the counselling directory Australia Counselling for a few years.

Clinton Power established the directory and I am so impressed by the amount of work he does for the emotional and mental health practitioner community via his membership site.

In recent years, he teamed up with Juliet Austin and together they arrange and offer top rate professional learning opportunities for counsellors and psychotherapists via their podcasts entitled The Ask Juliet and Clinton Show. As well as therapeutic topics focusing on how to treat depression, anxiety, addiction etc the podcasts cover topics that are not covered in-depth in University courses - eg building a professional practice; how to market courses; how to establish an email list.

Through their Mind Body Institute they provide online courses offered by some of the world's best counselling and psychotherapy practitioners. As only one example, I completed recently a brilliant course offered via live webinar with Dr Ellyn Bader. Ellyn is a couples therapist who brought to our profession the developmental approach to couples therapy. In turn, that has been an extremely useful prism through which to see conflict in couples and families.

Thank you Clinton for all your energetic work. There's an annual fee that works out at approximately $4 per week. Great value especially when compared with other organisations.
