Theories and practices in counselling

An overview of the process of counselling, the major theories/models in counselling and their applications will be introduced in this course. The politics of counselling, the therapeutic relationship and ethical issues will also be examined. The two courses, SOWK2117 Theories and practices in counselling and PSYC2005 Introduction to counselling and therapeutic psychology, are mutually exclusive. Students can only enroll in either one of these two courses within their whole course of study.
