Description

This Psychology Counselling Level 5 Training course consists of 5 structured lectures, followed by an assessment, each addressing a core area of counselling-related knowledge and professional understanding.

The course begins with foundations of psychology and counselling, introducing key psychological theories, counselling frameworks, and the relationship between psychology and counselling practice. Learners then explore counselling techniques and methods, examining different approaches to communication, listening, and support from a conceptual and non-clinical perspective.

Specialised counselling areas introduce learners to a range of contexts in which counselling concepts are discussed, such as wellbeing support, educational settings, and organisational environments, without offering treatment instruction. Developing counselling skills focuses on self-awareness, reflective practice, ethical boundaries, and professional communication awareness within Psychology Counselling contexts.

The course concludes with research and practice in Psychology Counselling, examining evidence awareness, research literacy, and the role of reflective evaluation in informing counselling-related understanding and professional development.
