Description

We train you to take on caring counselling, pastoral and ministry roles informed by a Christian worldview. We help you develop respectful relationships with diverse individuals, families and communities, who are seeking support with mental health and healing of the soul, to empower them to work through their issues for an improved sense of wellbeing and hope for the future.

You will further develop an empathetic understanding of people’s concerns to connect with and help them in a professional and ethical manner.

You will graduate and be able to seek registration as a practising counsellor informed by Christian perspectives as you will have undertaken 80 hours of counselling with 20 hours supervision.
