      In Depth

      What will I study?

      In Year 1 you will learn about humanistic psychology. This is the core model underpinning our approach to human development and therapeutic work with individuals and groups. Skills-based practice sessions will develop empathic listening techniques and emotional responsiveness and provide the foundations for building collaborative helping relationships. You will receive a grounding in key professional and academic skills and explore the politics of psychotherapy and its potential to transform lives.

      In Year 2 you will enhance your skilled helping techniques, gain a firm understanding of qualitative and quantitative research, and deepen your knowledge of social justice and community action by critically reflecting on the emotionally debilitating nature of social inequality and discrimination. You will also explore three alternative approaches to human distress, namely psychodynamic counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and existential psychotherapy.

      Participation in a personal development group enables you to share in therapeutic sessions where the emphasis is on relating to others with congruence, empathy and acceptance. This provides an opportunity to explore in-depth the concerns and life experiences of others in an environment of trust to help you develop as a reflective practitioner.

      Year 3 enhances your appreciation and experience of group participation and supervision and provides you with the opportunity to develop your skills on a practice placement. You will study the philosophy of mental health and broaden your understanding of emotional health and wellbeing by examining its international context, exploring how psychotherapy is delivered in other countries and assessing the impact of global issues such as climate change, natural disasters and conflict on mental health. The programme culminates in the completion of a dissertation.

      How will I study?

      The programme is initially delivered by tutor-led presentations and class discussions. As the course progresses, the focus shifts to student-led learning, including experiential groups, project work, portfolio building, practice placement activity, student presentations and seminars.

      Your lectures will typically take place over three consecutive days per week. Practice sessions may be scheduled for the late afternoon and early evening where counselling skills can be practiced in the quiet environment of breakout rooms to safeguard confidentiality.

      You will learn through a varied, inclusive and person-centred approach, reflecting on your own and your peers’ experiences through participation in a personal development group. Your personal development is so important that we will provide an individual budget of £500 to enable you to enrich your learning by accessing your own personal therapy.

      An experience of personal therapy provides you with a unique insight into the process of counselling and psychotherapy. Offering you a safe and confidential space in which to explore the depth of your feelings, the personal therapy will enable you to better understand the clients’ perspective and provide an opportunity to enhance your own skills by observing your therapist’s method of working.

      How will I be assessed?

      You will be assessed through written assignments, individual and group presentations, formal debates and skills practice videos.

      As the programme progresses, assessments will also include portfolio work, projects, negotiated essay questions and a research dissertation.

      There are no formal written examinations as part of the current assessment methods on this programme.

      Who will be teaching me?

      The programme team includes research-active counsellors and psychotherapists with extensive experience in their field, publishing on topics such as counsellor training, feminist approaches to emotional wellbeing and existential psychotherapy.

      Programme delivery will be supplemented by associate lecturers including qualified and experienced therapists who will offer insights into working with different client groups.
