Recent years have seen a fresh interest in counselling in schools and other educational settings, in parallel with the wider demand for counselling services in modern society. This module aims to re-evaluate the key psychological perspectives and assumptions in such developments in terms of theory, practice and research. There will also be an in-depth exploration of selected counselling skills in reflective sessions. The topics covered will include theoretical perspectives such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural, solution-focused, positive psychology, mindfulness-based and humanistic models; the trend for theoretical integration; current developments and issues in counselling within educational settings; multicultural/religious considerations in counselling with a special focus on decolonising the field.
