We are intended to experience life within relationships, but our culture emphasizes individual efforts and success. Within the counselling concentration, students will develop skills that foster personal and relational health—such as empathic listening—alongside communication skills that will be beneficial in the workplace and in mentoring or pastoral roles.
Those considering further professional study in counselling or psychotherapy will find opportunities to discern their interest and skills for these career directions. This concentration will provide you with knowledge of techniques and frameworks used in the counselling practice, which will prepare you for further study in counselling or psychotherapy.
