Course Description

Central to a relational approach to counselling is the therapeutic relationship. It is in the context of this relationship, and on the basis of the trust that has developed, that the counsellor is able to invite the client to an awareness of themselves and others as relationally-constituted and impacted persons. This course requires students to experience 60 hours of practicum placement (plus preparation, reading and reporting), in order to integrate theoretical, theological and personal reflections, as well as development of skills and process. (Pre-requisite: 931.615 Professional Practice B; co-requisite: 904.715 Integrated Practice A)
