What will I learn?

We designed the Counselling Psychology program to prepare you for a career as a professional counsellor in the community or an educational setting, such as a school or university. The Counselling Psychology MA and MEd programs are highly sequenced, with almost all courses offered only once per year. The program structure and sequence is guided by two key principles:Effective counselling practice is guided by coherent theoretical frameworks, a working knowledge of assessment procedures, and a keen awareness of ethical principles and issues. Counselling skills and strategies are best learned through a series of structured experiences that allow students to refine their skills while becoming increasingly independent and confident in their clinical skills and judgment.
