This unit provides an introduction to the theory and practice of clinical and counselling psychology for a variety of emotional problems in both children and adults. There is a balanced focus on theory, research and practice throughout the unit. Major theoretical frameworks used in clinical and counselling psychology will be reviewed, using interesting case studies and real-life examples. A practical component involving role-plays and expert feedback in a small group format will be used to practice basic therapeutic strategies. The unit will be taught in four full day workshops. -- Course Website
