Program description
There is just one programme in this country that combines British Psychological Society accreditation with modules recognized by the Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body (CPCAB).
For students to have an in-depth appreciation for the interconnectedness of many areas of psychology, this course examines topics such as feelings, interpersonal interactions, cognitive processes, and the processes of learning and memory.
We'll cover ethics and theoretical approaches, as well as practical courses, in order to provide you the tools you need to help others. Learning by doing helps students become more self-aware, which is why role-playing and group work are so helpful.
Education takes place on Southwark Campus
