Brief Therapy (half module)

The module will give students the opportunity to explore the specialist Humanistic model in depth and to extend their learning beyond generic Humanistic counselling practice. The aim of the module is to allow students the opportunity to immerse themselves in the specialist Humanistic model. The module requires openness on the behalf of the students as they will be encouraged to reflect in depth, on their developing understanding of their own sense of themselves as a congruent Humanistic practitioner and on the ways that this particular model may, or may not, fit with their developing way of working. The module, which draws on the specialist knowledge of the individuals within the staff team, offers a mixture of theory, skills and experiential learning that will deepen the student’s understanding of this model, both personally and professionally. It will incorporate lectures, practical skills work and experiential/reflective exercises.
