This course focuses on Choice Theory/Reality Therapy and two Postmodern Counselling Approaches namely, Solution-Focused Therapy and Narrative Therapy Counselling Approaches. This course will explain the main concepts, therapeutic goals, processes and techniques that pertain to the abovementioned three counselling approaches, with an emphasis on Solution-Focused Therapy. In addition, the course will provide an overview of psychotherapy integration, so that students can work towards synthesising their own personal integrative counselling approach. It is the aim of this course to equip students with the essential knowledge and skills of these three counselling approaches, and to help them apply these knowledge and skills in case formulation and intervention planning. The latter will be employed in hypothetical case scenarios, and in actual cases during the students' practicum later in their degree programme.
