Foundation Diploma

Why Study Grief, Loss, Stress and Anger Management?

Anger, stress, grief and loss are all negative emotions that we will experience throughout our lives.

Understanding the impact of these emotions is important to helping us to understand human behaviour, mental health and overall well-being.

When we physically hurt ourselves, we get a bruise or a cut, but when we are angry, grieving and stressed, we cannot always see the physical signs of how we are feeling. Sometimes if we are really angry or upset, then yes, another person can see that, but often we keep our feelings inside.  These feelings can then affect our mental and physical health.

Stress, grief and anger can lead to long term physical health conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes and more. 

If you would like to help people to find ways to reduce the negative emotions they are feeling, then this course will provide you with a solid foundation to work in this area.

At times of loss, trauma and grief, people can find it hard to cope.  By understanding the impact of these emotions, we can then develop strategies for coping and resilience.

Train to support people who are struggling through difficult times in their lives with this extensive and intensive foundation diploma.

How to be a Life CoachLife coaching is a relatively new profession - although coaches have been around for a long time in the guise of trainers, instructors, managers and tutors for various professions and disciplines. Life coaching is not easily defined, but it is a type of mentoring which focuses on helping individuals to achieve what they would like to achieve and thereby to lead more fulfilling lives. Unlike other forms of coaching, it takes place outside of the workplace and is concerned with all aspects of a person’s life.
