Counselling Psychology: University of the West of England

Introduction

The Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology is designed to provide a doctoral level education and professional qualification. A doctoral level research project is combined with a taught programme of modules and with counselling psychology practice in a range of placements. Research, theory, personal development, professional development and practice are integrated in the concept of the reflective practitioner. You are required to combine personal history with explicit use of psychological theory in analysing the process of therapy and as a basis for mindful practice.

The part-time route allows you to combine your training with part-time employment, possibly within a psychology post.
