MSc Counselling and Psychotherapy

... United Kingdom
... Keele University

Course Overview

This MSc program in Counselling and Psychotherapy aims to equip you with the knowledge and expertise to become professional person-centered/humanistic counselors. The course integrates your counseling skills practice with the academic study of counseling-related theory at the Masters's level and facilitates students personal and professional development, as well as offering you a grounding in research methodology. The course is founded on a person-centered view of personhood and person-centered ways of being and the core training offered by the program is in the person-centered approach. We accept the overwhelming evidence of the theorists that the major factor in helping human beings change in a desired positive direction is a relationship in which they feel safe, valued, and challenged. Therefore, we view the relationship in counseling as central, and support Carl Rogers belief in the €˜self-therapeutic capacity and wisdom of clients. However, we also take a strong €˜anti-schools stance which reflects our sincere respect for other, non-person-centered practices and practitioners. Our starting point for the Keele Counselling Model is thus a unifying ethos that enables us to respect and welcome a diversity of professional skills and orientations. Additionally, the centrality of a secure and constantly reviewed ethical position, based on the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions, is presented to the program members as a major personal responsibility.
