Course summary

Why study this course?

This Counselling and Psychotherapy MSc course will give you the academic and practical training to become eligible to practice as a counsellor. We offer an integrative approach to counselling and psychotherapy based upon person-centred, cognitive-behavioural, and psychodynamic therapeutic frameworks, which will enable you to succeed in your future career in the counselling professions.

This course places value on learning through experience, collaborative projects in small groups, as well as reflective, non-discriminatory, and ethical counselling practice. Through the exploration of different therapeutic frameworks, you鈥檒l develop essential practitioner skills and learn how to ethically apply them to support clients with differing expectations and needs.

By developing advanced levels of knowledge and practical counselling skills, you鈥檒l also learn to critically reflect on your own experiences and practice to maintain the highest standards that protect those using counselling services.
