PROGRAMME STRUCTURE
The Diploma in Psychotherapy programme first introduces group counselling where students acquire the essential skills required for group counselling. The benefits and disadvantages are also presented to prepare the students for issues that may arise during a session. Intervention strategies on addiction and crisis are then followed respectively. Students will then understand the various emotional and behavioural issues faced by children to better their skills in counselling children in different situations. Practicum will then supply students with opportunities to apply their knowledge and skills learnt.
