Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Psychology and Counselling

Program Overview

Our Psychology and Counselling BSc Honours is accredited by the British Psychological Society. It provides you with a broad contemporary education in psychology and counselling within a vibrant, global learning environment situated in the heart of London.

Our course team brings together qualified counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists who are passionate about sharing their experience, knowledge and skills of therapy.

Our programme of study has been designed to meet the requirements for the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership (GBC) of the British Psychological Society. This will prepare you for postgraduate training and becoming a Chartered Psychologist.

In addition to psychology, you’ll learn about different therapeutic approaches to therapy, and practical therapeutic skills. Our course is also designed to help you to think creatively and critically, developing the problem-solving skills that will enable you to apply psychology and counselling to address a wide range of personal, professional and societal needs.

The programme also offers option modules, and most are focused on professional practice to help you towards employability.

The Psychology and Counselling BSc provides a pathway towards personal and professional growth and development. After graduation, you’ll be suitably equipped to embark on further professional training in counselling psychology and psychotherapy, as well as to work in a wide range of professional settings. 

Please note: to become a qualified counsellor/psychotherapist/counselling psychologist, you will need to undertake further professional training after graduation.
