Program Description

Counselling and psychotherapy are terms for a wide variety of evidence-based talking and listening approaches that apply established theories to promote psychological change.

Our course also covers all core elements of psychological study as required by the British Psychological Society (BPS), from lifespan development and research methods to social, biological, and cognitive psychology.

Alongside the main discipline of psychology, each year of this course offers specialist units where you’ll study the fields of counselling and psychotherapy.

In addition to theory, you’ll also learn basic practical counselling skills. Some of these skills may include how to offer acceptance, empathic listening, questioning techniques and how to develop practitioner resilience. You’ll learn through role-playing in pairs and small groups, listening, observing, and giving feedback to your peers.
