Counselling (Person-centred Counselling and the Psychotherapeutic Relationship) Part time with our Centre for Lifelong Learning

Your personal and academic learning will be well supported by peers, tutors and specialists in academic study skills. The programme aims to balance theory, professional practice and personal development. You will develop:

An in-depth understanding of the underlying philosophy and theories of the person centred approach to counselling and psychotherapy;

An understanding of how to apply theory to counselling and psychotherapy practice;

A clearer understanding and awareness of your own attitudes and behaviour with other people;

Supervised client work in placements throughout the region and in different settings;

Insight into counselling and psychotherapy professional developments, as well as the work of other mental health professionals;

Confidence in how to use research and current evidence-based knowledge about mental health and human development.

Flexible entry requirements. The application form invites you to provide a reflective statement, if invited to interview you will be assessed in a group discussion, on a written task and on how you respond to a situation. If you have not studied for some time we may require further evidence of your study skills in order to demonstrate your readiness for this B.A. programme.
