Psychology and Counselling Studies is an ideal combination of subjects for those wishing to move into a career in the helping professions or those intending to undertake postgraduate training in applied psychology professions. Students in this course will gain knowledge and understanding in all the core domains of psychology alongside carefully curated counselling modules which link theory, research and skills to the therapeutic context and reflective practice. Psychology is the study of human behaviour. It explores a wide range of fascinating areas from how we think and how we see other people, to how people develop, how relationships are formed, and how we can help people in distress.
This course enables students to explore professional and ethical issues in the psychology and counselling context, and it is applicable to many professional contexts where listening, and understanding is important, such as teaching, nursing and social work. Whilst it is important to note that the course does not provide professional training as a counsellor, it does place students in an excellent position to apply for such training on successful completion of this programme.
