If you have a DipHE in counselling (or an equivalent Level 5 counselling qualification), you can top it up to a Bachelor's degree on this 1-year course.
Humanistic counselling encourages individuals to think about their feelings and take responsibility for their thoughts and actions, with the emphasis on self-development and achieving their potential rather than on problematic behaviour. Gestalt therapy, for example, is one of a number humanistic approaches.
You'll learn the latest trends and developments in humanistic counselling theory and apply them to your practice, with professional development support in the form of workshops, supervision and networking. You'll also complete a research project on a topic that matches your interests and ambitions.
If you're in employment, this course can fit around your working week, with timetabled teaching taking place 1 day a week, workshops on 6 Saturdays throughout the course, and occasional events in the evenings and at weekends.
After the course, you could work as a humanistic counsellor in areas such as education, the police service, the prison service or the voluntary sector. The advanced skills and experience you gain will allow you to work with a wider variety of clients with more complex needs.
