MSc/PgDip Counselling and Psychotherapy Studies (Professional Training)
- Part-time study available
- Clinical Placement
- Work placement opportunity
Over the last few years there has been a gradual increase in the number of advertised counselling posts in the NHS, social services, education, the prison service and both commercial and voluntary organisations. There are opportunities for part-time and private work and widespread opportunities for you to study further at postgraduate level.
Students who have successfully completed the course have started their own business as a counsellor, acquired jobs within NHS, the voluntary sector and education.
Industry Links
We work with over 100 health and social care organisations so our links with industry are very strong. These relationships will be of direct benefit to you because our academic team work in practice in some of these organisations at a senior level so are able to keep you at the forefront of developments in the sector, which in turn help you provide a better service.
This course has particularly strong links with the NHS, voluntary and private sector because our students complete a counselling placement as part of the training within these organisations.
