This degree explores the practices of counselling and psychotherapy, examining them within their broader social and cultural contexts. You will gain a deeper understanding of individuals by considering how their environments – historical, cultural, social, and political – impact them, and vice versa. The course balances theoretical knowledge with practical application, equipping you with the tools to understand and engage with complex human experiences. You will develop critical thinking, empathic understanding, and a greater self-awareness throughout your studies.
