Start a transformative journey towards a rewarding career in mental health with our BSc Counselling course. Accredited by the BACP, our inclusive programme blends theory, practical skills, self-awareness, and placements to nurture skilled and reflective practitioners. Gain transferable skills while working alongside clients on their profound journeys of self-discovery.
Master three major psychotherapeutic approaches - Person-centred therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic therapy - to become a versatile and effective mental health practitioner in your counselling career.
You will gain a deep understanding of the therapeutic relationship. You will examine personal therapy experiences, observe video-recorded peer counselling sessions, and get supervised clinical experience. You'll meet clients from different backgrounds. You'll address topics such as loss, violence, abuse, depression, and anxiety.

YOUR FUTURE CAREER
A huge bonus of studying for this degree is that you will graduate from a BACP-accredited course, having acquired more than 100 hours of client-work experience.
You'll have a professional qualification, so you'll be able to go straight into employment, getting a job as a counsellor or even starting up your own private practice. That's how many of our graduates have begun their careers.
Other likely employment areas include charities, schools or NHS mental health services. You can work towards the full BACP accreditation of 450 hours of experience while working and getting paid.
This undergraduate course is ambitious and challenging and, when you've seen it through, you'll find yourself at a level that many other students can aspire to only at postgraduate level.
If you prefer to continue with your academic career, you'll be able to progress to postgraduate studies in psychotherapy, coaching or integrative coaching and counselling disciplines. Or you can go on to do a master's in Psychology. All these avenues will be open to you.
