Program Description

Our bachelor of Counselling will start you on an enthralling journey to unravel the human mind. You’ll begin to explore the relationship between biology, psychology, and our environment.

Like learning a different language, you’ll immerse yourself in this explorative experience beginning with an exploration of yourself through self-reflection; a look at where both we, and others come from, our families, countries, languages, customs, and practices. You’ll learn about the development of humans – from infant development to tumultuous adolescence, the becoming of adulthood, and culminating in the experience of older age, illness, and death.

The bachelor of Counselling gives you the opportunity to learn interpersonal competencies, including communication, interpersonal skills, teamwork, self-reflection, negotiation, and conflict resolution skills.

The clinical knowledge, diverse expertise, and experience of our academic staff will help you develop the foundational skills, to use this knowledge in the future – in your own relationships, but more importantly, should you wish to pursue postgraduate studies in counseling and psychotherapy.
