Gratitude

Faith Institute has been life-changing. Their courses helped me master myself and equipped me to offer professional help to many people struggling with addiction, mental health issues, and family challenges. I am grateful to Dr. Ndubuisi Theophilus and the entire team.

I encourage everyone — especially ministers, teachers, and parents, to tap into the great resources offered by the institute. This will surely help them guide the young people in their care.

The Course on Marriage and Family Counselling has significantly enhanced my competence and confidence in counselling couples and families. It has equipped me with effective communication techniques, problem-solving strategies, and ethical guidelines necessary for supporting couples facing marital challenges. I have also gained a deeper appreciation of the importance of empathy, active listening, and respect for the dignity of every person in the counselling relationship.

I highly recommend this Course to priests, religious, marriage counsellors, social workers, psychologists, teachers, healthcare professionals, and anyone involved in family ministry or pastoral care. It is equally beneficial for individuals who wish to strengthen their own marriages and family relationships.

Certified Famly & Marriage Counselor

I am so super excited to be part of this great course "Certified family and marriage Counselor. The diploma program is worth the time and all the resources put into it. The Lectures were very phenomenal. The Topics were awesome and the lectures were so mind blowing. There was so much information to process. I gained so much insight to handling family and marital related issues. We were exposed to information as to how people behave the way they do as well as how peoples background and upbringing affects their later behaviours.

We were thought a number of theories propounded by different scholars to handle various problems in families that bother on the relationship between couples. The benefits of this course and other courses organised by the institute can not be over emphasized. This is the fourth program that I am doing with the institute. As long as the opportunity comes for any other relevant programs I will not hesitate to enrol again and again.

A NOTE OF GRATITUDE FROM AN ALUMNUS

If you had asked me before this programme what “excellence in training” looked like, I wouldn’t have had the words. Now I do. Without a doubt, the Institute provided me with a learning experience that was structured, practical, and deeply human. The facilitators didn’t just teach; they mentored. They challenged us, supported us, and modelled the very professionalism they were instilling in us.

I can say with certainty that the turning point for me was the Marriage Counselling Practicum. That’s where theory came alive. That’s where I learned that counselling is not just about techniques, but about people. It built my confidence and grounded my skills in real application. To the lecturers and administrative staff: thank you for your patience, your passion, and for believing in us even on the days we doubted ourselves. You created more than a classroom. You created a community.

I am walking away with tools, values, and a renewed sense of purpose. And so, I proudly recommend this programme to anyone who is serious about professional growth and making a real difference through counselling, especially in Marriage and Family counselling. Again, thank you for raising professionals who will go on to raise others.

With sincere appreciation

As I reflect on my journey at the Faith Institute for Pastoral Counselling and Family Affairs, my heart is filled with deep gratitude and appreciation. Enrolling in the Marriage and Family Counselling programme has been one of the most rewarding decisions I have made. What I received was far more than lectures, notes, and classroom discussions. It was a life-changing experience that transformed my perspective, strengthened my character, and equipped me with practical counselling skills that I will carry throughout my professional journey.

One thing that makes this Institute truly exceptional is its commitment to excellence. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, the teaching is thorough and engaging, and every facilitator teaches not only from knowledge but also from experience and genuine passion. Every session challenged me to think critically, grow personally, and become a more competent and compassionate counsellor. Perhaps the most outstanding aspect of the programme was its strong emphasis on practical application. The Marriage Counselling Practicum was an unforgettable experience. It bridged the gap between theory and practice, giving me the confidence, empathy, and professional competence to counsel individuals, couples, and families with wisdom, sensitivity, and excellence.

I am equally grateful to the administrative team. Their warmth, professionalism, encouragement, and unwavering support created an atmosphere where every student felt valued, inspired, and motivated to succeed. Their dedication made the entire learning experience enjoyable and memorable. Today, I leave this Institute with much more than a certificate. I leave with renewed confidence, sound knowledge, practical competence, ethical values, and a clearer sense of purpose. I am convinced that the investment I made in this programme will continue to yield positive results in my ministry, career, and service to humanity for many years to come.

Without reservation, I give the Faith Institute for Pastoral Counselling and Family Affairs my highest recommendation. If you desire quality training, practical competence, sound ethical values, and professional excellence in Marriage and Family Counselling or related fields, this is the place for you. Thank you to the management, facilitators, and every member of staff for your unwavering commitment to raising competent, ethical, compassionate, and impactful professionals. Your investment in people is transforming lives, families, and communities.
