Presentation time: Monday, 22 June, 2020 - 14:20

This session will showcase the new 60-credit level 2 module D241 Exploring mental health and counselling in the School of Psychology. The module - the successor to D240 – locates the practices of counselling and psychotherapy within the broader field of mental health. The module critically examines how societal definitions and understandings of mental health issues have impacted the way that clients who seek counselling are understood and the forms of counselling and psychotherapy that they are offered. In doing so, D241 provides a comprehensive and engaging introduction to both the often controversial debates around mental health/illness and the main theories and practices in counselling.  

This session will aim to give a flavour of what studying D241 is like – the written content, the videos and podcasts and the huge range of activities designed to further understanding and foster interest in this fascinating area.
