Mindfulness in Therapy (Micro-Credential)

Offered by Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors (AIPC)

Practitioners integrating mindfulness into their therapeutic practices are ethically responsible for the assessment of a client’s capacity to engage in mindfulness strategies, as well as the identification of specific practices which are both appropriate to the client’s presentation, and which support the therapeutic goals of the intervention. Therefore, the focus of this upskill micro-credential is to offer practical examples of ways clinicians can gain experience in using mindfulness both with their clients and in their own lives.

This course has been specifically designed for helping professionals, to build on your existing knowledge, skills and practical experience, and help you develop understanding, techniques and strategies to assist you as you continue your professional journey..

Participants will:

  • Understand what mindfulness is and how it differs from other similar techniques
  • Learn how to improve your own mindfulness practice
  • Recognise important considerations when using mindfulness with clients
  • Use mindfulness in your client work
