Barbara Woodis-Ihloff (USA) started CCI co-counselling in 1976 and since then has attended every CCI-USA and 3 European ones. ‘For the first 5 years I took classes with Dency and then with Dodie Pratt. After 2 years of apprenticing I began teaching. I usually co-teach and/or take on an apprentice. In 2011, I participated in designing and implementing an unique Teacher Training course. I am currently serving as one of the continuity persons for CCI-USA. I have used my co-counselling skills to free myself from inhibiting patterns, and to become all that I was meant to be. My love for this community and for co-counselling feeds my soul. In addition, I now have cherished friends all over the world. What a blessing!’@
CCI trainer: Beth Barclay first entered CCI co counselling in 1997, then became a teacher/trainer in 1999. Why I think it is important to teach the CCI way? That CCI-style co-counselling is the most sustainable mental health and community support system I have ever seen. @
CCI trainer: Bobby MacLaughlin is a co-counsellor since 1983 and a CCI trainer of the Irish community since 1986. When I first encountered co-counselling my spirits were at a very low ebb. The skills I gained in co-counselling empowered me to change my life to an extent I would not previously have believed possible. I want to share this amazing and wonderful experience with other people. That has been my reason for training to teach co-counselling and is still my reason to continue. I love the way co-counselling is based on equality, celebrating our human similarities, celebrating our human differences, with respect for all. @
