Support the mental health and wellbeing of others

Our Bachelor of Arts (Counselling) gives you the skills to support the mental health and wellbeing of others. You can specialise in counselling during your degree, completing units that will teach you about family therapy, emotional and behavioural responses, foundational counselling skills, personality and psychopathology and introductory psychology.

You also have freedom to pursue your passion and choose from a range of other areas to complete the other required units. With a one-day-a-week placement in your final year, you will be work ready at graduation.
